Actually, I've been more concerned about mice than snakes lately - mice are prey for snakes. A few months ago, I had mice in my living-space - this appears to have been largely resolved via pest control services, and blocking more and more points were rodents have entered (and hopefully exited).

Read the book (and its sequels), saw the movie (and its sequel). Clarke and Kubrick got it all wrong. • Pan-Am (Pan-American Airlines) ceased operation in 1991 -- ten years before the book's/movie's setting. • Truly sentient artificial intelligence has yet to be achieved -- 20+ years after the book... |

Any thoughts on wearing socks (or not wearing socks) with slippers?
