            <I don't think it's anthropocentric to acknowledge that humans have
    certain attributes which set us apart as a species (culture, written
    language, volition, or whatever). Other attributes set other species and
    groups apart in their own right. I'm envious of those animals who can flap
    their limbs and fly, like birds and bats or those animals who can take their
    oxygen from water.>

            I agree completely with you here Scott.
