We can learn a lot form ants. They are not far from forming perfect communities. They work together to achieve things that are mind boggling. They can build enormous tunnel systems in a very short amount of time. But their engineering capabilities is not all that is amazing. Have you ever stirred up an ant hill? Within a instant they  swarm all over whatever punctured their fortress. Immediately they spread out. They move their young to safety. The workers begin accessing the damage and repairing what ever they can. Then there are the soldiers. These brave ants show no fear. They will attack an enemy no matter how big or strong. They will defend their home and their queen with their lives. They are armed with a weapon that will make even the biggest of beasts flinch. Even when their home is completely destroyed, they will keep on fighting. They spread out and fight even if it means their death just so they will have their revenge. I just kinda impressed me. Figured I'd share.

My IQ has dropped for reading this thread.  I can vouch for the fact that anthills have great entertainment value at Ft. Benning.  When all else fails, kick an anthill, drop in as spider/caterpillar/small creature and let the games begin.  Ranger TV.

Hey FOX-.  I've noticed, you catch Hell alot here.    I think it's great you stay around and roll with the punches.  Keep up the good work.  

Ants are cool, unless they're the biting kind.  I don't have any kind words for the biting kind.

These were the biting kind, red ants AKA fire ants.

A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.

-Robert A. Heinlein






sorry Fox, I have no desire to be like an ant.
