Yeah, but humans have evolved since we came from the ocean. Now we're creatures of the land, even if our predecessors weren't.

Cleveland sucks. Why were you in Cleveland for four years? College, I guess? Where'd you go?

I went snorkeling in the Bahamas on a school trip. Best week of my life.

Anadromy... Only definition I know is a fishy definition. I'm a little scared of what you meant.

Anadromy?

I can't speak for Ibram, but I think anadromy relates to being born in fresh water, living in the ocean, and going back to spawn in the fresh water. Like salmon, sturgeon, etc. Eels do it in reverse...Maybe they meant "androgony."

I've been snorkling in St. John in the Virgin Islands for work and snorkling for fun in Brazil. Very nice...

Hey Pie, did you go to Case W?

Yeah, that's the anadromy I know...

Nothing beats the Bahamas. Andros Island, babee.

Case has a good campus... I took a class there over the summer. But I don't think I'd go there.

Fishhead's fine. A step up from fish hugger... Or maybe a step down. I don't know/care.

I don't always agree with 9th, but you are indeed sounding a bit big for your britches young lady. Wait until you've snorkled around the world before you make such definitive declarations.

Fine. Nothing in my experience beats the Bahamas. Better?

I tend to use hyperboles. So sue me.

Roly-poly? Um... sure? msnzg.

I didn't see this one earlier -- yes I did. Class of 1996, with a BSc. in Physics. Are you a Casie?
