Ah, the old "I know a secret that you don't and that makes me special!" ploy, eh?
I might just add that all these "higher brains" did was set up the conditions necessary for the foxes to be able to do the hard part by themselves, essentially recreating the natural environment - which is the whole point of these experiments. If living organisms didn't have the capacity to breed and evolve built in already, it's hardly likely that scientists would be able to get them to do it. And what purpose would that serve, if they were presenting findings that weren't there? How's that evolutionary conspiracy thing coming along there, G-C?
I forget who said this and can't be arsed to look it up, but no matter how sophisticated the science the easiest way to make babies (for the most part
) is through unskilled labour.

Higher than yours, certainly.

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
