Ocean Preference
If you could be any animal in the ocean, what would you be?
———- from Mike and Kim Henson of Yellville, Arkansas
Yours is the type of question that makes doing a show and email service like this such a chore. Not that I thought it would be effortless — day in, day out, wrestling with the concentrated ignorance of the nation. But it’s questions like yours that have more to do wtih whim, emotion, desire and nothing to do with facts. Data is the stuff that science is made of. Your question appeals only to the right brain, that side favored by psychics, astrologers and lucid dreamers. As you may have noticed, I do not belong to that group of fuzzy thinkers. But to answer your question, if I had to be a sea creature, I would be a blowfish.
