Clearly these are very discriminating people; they have what old Al Pope referred to as the Microscopick Eye. Then too, vultures have notoriously an iron stomach, but perhaps there are extremities of rot that would choke even a vulture. Does this make one think better of vultures, or worse? After all, swallowing anything is *what vultures do*. If they turn up their beaks at some particularly nauseating, pullulating mess, does that mean they're evolving into bunnies? Or does it mean they're not quite satisfactory, even as vultures? -- -- Michael J.
