Get your mind out of the gutter. :) Also, for those having trouble sleeping at night wondering about the plight of the ground squirrel, the teacher let it go the next day. He figured it might be a risk of disease too, and decided it wasn't a good idea to keep it. The name literally means sead loving. Get your mind out of the gutter. :)

What an amazing time that was. It really changed the economics of Europe. That is when most women came into land and had "the means" to not marry. Call it evolution...good or bad?
