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?

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." http://www.scienceagogo.com/news/20040911003353data_trunc_sys.shtml No trees were harmed in the production of this message.
