Different tracks, too, I hope. Otherwise they will be in very nearly exactly the same place, which would be bad.

I don't think you should go around shooting squirrels.

what if the squirrel were on the same side of the tree as the hunter with his back to the hunter..... and as the hunter circles, the squirrel maintains his relative position... just the opposite of the mental nut?

if he ONLY sees the back of the squirrel, has he gone around?

If the "hunter" doesn't take the shot, he'll be called Dances with Squirrels.

@ glatt's clock: NO, because that's impossible...but point A goes around point B.

Only if point A is moving and point B is stationary.

This is Squirrel Island, Maine

If a boater goes all the way around the island, does it become a green chocolate rabbit ?
