"Flying snakes" or "we're screwed now"
Nature is amazing.... I learn new things daily, and this one caught my attention today:
http://news.yahoo.com/s//livescience...ecretrevealed/ Read the entire article... Are we really the smartest beings? These snakes use a complex calculation to optimize their flight, this is simply mind-boggling!

I've never heard of this variety of snake.
You really do learn something new every day.

Greg: cool article, thanks! i did some checking, it's not poisonous.
I'm sure the Doctor would have shot and eaten them, or run away like crazy laughing and mumbling something or other if high.  Happy Thanksgiving!  best, Dan |

If you have ever been to Taiwan, you will probably know it is home to some of the most poisonous snakes. Even in the city of Taipei, there are signs warning people to watch for deadly snakes in trees or falling from trees.
