ya i suppose. but *any* smart organism that
didnt have hands or something analogous would
kill for a good pair of them. {8^D
the direction of this thread is this: as advanced
beings, we see the value of having senses and
capabilities beyond what evolution has provided.
so we develop these: "eyes" that can see at higher
and lower frequencies than ours, "hands" that can
manipulate huge boulders and atoms, "brains" that
can calculate repetitively for indefinte times without
getting tired or making mistakes.
we will eventually make extensions of ourselves
that will sense and do just about every imaginable
thing. i suspect et will do likewise, regardless of
where its evolutionary took it. spike
