> One World! Sure, that's the idea behind trade treaties. But if that one world is to be the worst common denominator under the control of global corporations, I prefer keeping the door closed. I don't let the wild life run through the house, either. Today I exiled a field mouse caught in the rat trap on the side of the house to the other canal side. Two days ago a madly protesting Great Tit fluttered to and fro in the trap. The real target is sweeping up woodmice before they get into the walls as they make a hell of a racket when running in walls and floors at night. Somewhat successfully. Interestingly, the house mice are basically not to be found next to the house, keeping to the stables instead. And apart from two caught exemplars, the brown rats preferred dwelling at our neighbor's place this year. Apropos: even if the corporate rats are permitted to gobble up the North American continent, I'm not interested in letting them in here. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
