Yes, mankind made a boo-boo. Now mankind should fix the boo-boo. I suppose smashing enough eggs

And we could declare a swan season.

In all seriousness, swans are beautiful to look at but really nasty
critters. We come across quite a few of them when we're cruising and
thet get unpleasant up close, bad dispositions to the core. Early in
our cruising days when we thought feeding them was cool, a swan took a
chip out of the side of our boat, apparently because we were not
feeding him fast enough. Other birds like ducks give them a wide
berth.



I'm certain many critters think mankind is really nasty and unpleasant.
Who is to say the world exists for mankind?


I am glad to have had this discussion with you. I've always wondered about the source of your
bitterness. Now I can see you despise mankind. Knowing you are in that category must be extremely
painful to you.

That's a shame.



The sad thing is that you probably believe that statement of yours.


Yup. I don't tell stories that are lies.
