you know, Frank... you're a pretty motivational guy. lol

I think if people would/ could be less sensitive and realize that you're planting seeds of ideas rather than insulting them, there would be a lot more action/ learning going on in this forum.

I've had many ideas over the years on ways to test snakes ability to think, learn, and problem solve with food as a reward... many using boxes or dishes and experimenting with timing, shapes, numbers, colors, etc. but I've never done it. I think it's time to start.

what's funny... in life I'm very critical of anyone who is satisfied with "good enough" or anyone who lacks the drive/passion to find even a slight improvement in something. I've been a bit of a hypocrite in my snake keeping because while I try to have an open mind, I quickly dismiss any unconventional ideas I have because I figure it must be a stupid thought since nobody else is doing it. well... no more.
