Come on, Bob! This is the first breath of fresh air on this List in weeks!
Humor it! It will expire on its own, without a lot of finger wagging! In
Springtime, thoughts turn to fancy!

There are both toads and spiders who deliberately roll downhill,  
using their whole body as a wheel.  Nature has not evolved separate  
wheels because the same basic body plan with four limbs and twenty  
tips has served to fill all available ecological niches, and there  
were no full-rotation bearings even in the Burgess Shale selection of  
body types.  Now, can we please get back to the regular hot air stuff?
