If that's what Sharon said she'd feel about "nobody," I'd all but
expect her to feel the same way or more about "the gerbils." {I know
they're GP's, but I'm tired of that label. <s>} Though by then, she
may have stopped caring, since folks sometimes do that, when extensive
effort produces no rewards.

I don't know if *any*one is going to get it, given how long they've
been at it. It would seem that none of them realize they have added
the adjective "human" to the frame of reference they use about the
puzzle. One of the hardest tricks for the human mind is, to realize
the nature of the frame of reference we use about a problem, since
often that is so completely taken for granted as to never reach
consciousness. It's like the old Zen saying, that a fish doesn't know
the water in which it swims.
