The ferret-list has been filled lately with almost unbelievable tales of human cruelty to ferrets (and other animals). Albert Einstein must has been ferret compassionate for he wrote, Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former. We must all persevere to eliminate stupidity, as formidable a task as it is. FML is an excellent vehicle to start with. A. Wiebe [Posted in FML issue 2460]
