I learned the idea in Univ. Biology class, learning about skinnerian
behaviour theory and stuff. I wanted to be very certain I did not teach
him what a mousetrap is, if he'd tried to get the food and it had gone off
but missed I'd never have caught him. Those critters start out cautious
and that's why they sometimes escape. Get him confident and he'll just
step right up. I'm lucky too I only had a single mouse to cope with.

Come to think of it, there are already a million
monkeys on a million typewriters, and Usenet is
still nothing like Shakespeare.
