    Dinosaurs really had the jump on mammals in terms of time to evolve flying ability, but I’ve got faith more mammals can go that way.

    Of all of the alien fauna I saw in Australia, seeing fruit bats fly over at dusk was the most memorable. (Finding engorged leeches between my toes was the second, and the emotion was quite different.)

    I grew up around APAC and didn’t realise how lame Batman was until I found out American bats are like little miniature rodent wannabe bats.
