Watch animals who are good at climbing and you eventually get the
impression that their minds are wired diff. They do not have the fear
of falling we have although logic says they should. Clearly, this guy
has little fear of falling but I wonder how much he has practiced on
these particular rocks. Notice the white chalk on some of the blocks
indicating a lot of use by climbers.

Whether it's familiarity with the terrain, a natural talent, or a lot
of practice, I would have to concede that the backflip on the vertical
wall is unnatural. I would suspect that very few people would be able
to develop that type of skill.

We should genetically engineer people to have grasping feet. In fact,
I imagine that generations from now people who live in space will
develop such. They will have little use for shoes and will need such
feet to keep from drifting around while they use their hands.

You will be one of few who go for the Volt. Over priced, 40 mile range and
not a hybrid. Need to run the motor 3 hours to recharge and does not
motivate the car. $40k for an in town car. Cheaper to hire a taxi. Some
idiot is pressing this debacle.

Well, I'd rather have a Prius. But I'm fine for now.

That reminds me of a science fiction novel I read years ago, "The Mote
in God's Eye," by David Niven and Jerry Pournelli. It's been years
since I've read it; but, it seems to me that that in the novel the
human race encounters another life form that was similar to what
you've described.

*Larry Niven*...David Niven was the absolutely wonderful English actor.
Jerry Pournelle, not Pournelli.
