Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.

Wow, ants are even cooler in my opinion. I will now mimic them by only driving in the middle lane when I am taking groceries home.

I can verify their ability to learn. I have an ant nest under a frisbee in my backyard and when I first lifted the frisbee up and discovered, they were in chaos for a few hours. Now when I lift it up, they seem to regain order in 10-20 minutes.

Sadly, I used to spray ants with window cleaner when I was a youngster. It was before I understood death, the value of life, and the concept of kindness and peace.

Now I avoid killing ants.
