Hi Dien,

So, do you suppose that the entrepreneurial Australian roaches want to ride the glory train to success on the heels of BB's soon-to-be universal recognition, and status, by aligning their publications with his handsome image and esteemed reputation? A joint venture? Hmmm...
O.K. - it might work!

And to think that it was YOU that made this keen observation of higher intelligence in Australia's roach kingdom. Way to go, Dr. Rice. :)

Thanks for the good laugh with your very witty and imaginative response!

More Cheers!
Amber
