The lengths our little buddies are willing to go for us all in the name
of science!  Can you believe - scientists actually having a business of
ferrets watch The Matrix while their brains were studied?  In one finding
the scientists were surprised to find that the adult ferret's brains were
80% active in the brain's visual areas even when in a dark room.  A very
interesting article on this experiment ends with this thought: "Either
that or The Matrix freaked out the ferrets the way it did everyone else."

No trees were harmed in the production of this message.  However,
a rather large number of electrons were somewhat inconvenienced.
