I don't remember the details, though.

Radiolab is thought-provoking radio and well done.

(That's from Season 1. They're on Season 15 now. ;-) . Similarly, the book has been out a while.

Thanks for the reminder!

I'm also reminded of a book I read a while ago (I'll update this if I think of the title) of a popular philosophical tomb about an anteater talking with a (female) ant-hill. She invited him to have a snack while they were talking and there was some discussion about her "distributed intelligence", etc. I'll have to see if I can dig it up soon...

Similarly, cells in our body are dying all the time. When exactly do "we" die?

Lots of interesting questions....

Cheers,
Scott.
