Are wolves not 'better' at long distance running? That's what I always hear about them, have no idea how or if this has been measured but that was always my understanding. |

Having a brain and thumbs is the way to go. There are stuff with prehensile tails and stuff, but with hands, you got two of them. So two hands and being smart enough to use them to make tools is what you need if you want to advance. |

Eh, a pig doesn't have a drive to better than anyone else, it only wants to survive. Humans and pack animals are really the only ones with this drive to be better than the next guy, except in matters of mating and territory.

When other animals make decistions and comtemplate things, it is less of a conciouss thought process... No neo-cortex.) |

This was that cult, and the prisoners said it had always existed and always would exist, hidden in distant wastes and dark places all over the world until the time when the great priest Cthulhu, from his dark house in the mighty city of R'lyeh under the waters, should rise and bring the earth again beneath his sway.
