    Where do you work - so I can avoid it! At a stint I spent at AZ, the group I worked with were all heavily into cooking, so much so that one guy left to setup his own business selling hard to get cooking ingredients.

    And how much fire, tools, wheels and so on did those lizards invent, eh?

    Evolution dictates that we all start out as those tiny organisms. Give it a few million years and they'll probably be running the show, long after we've wiped everything else off the face of the earth.
