I've occasionally wondered while reading this thread (only on lunch break tho, so those of you who are paying my salary -- it's on my own time) how one determines if one is an animal or not. I would think that if an animal is capable of thinking of this question, they probably think they aren't an animal. But that would be most of us, so there goes the "98% of us are animals" theory (I'm assuming we're talking about homo sapiens here, and not all of Creation).
So, Alfa, are you an animal? And if not, how do you know for sure you're not?
