This story was retold to me by The KingofHearts about his little circle of friends and is simply too good to not publish immediately. I feel justified in spreading this story around because they still call me names behind my back.
He relates:
"So we're all discussing whether things are fruits or vegetables. Then naturally, we get onto the subject of mammal or reptile, etc. because we're discussing the platypus and how weird it is.
"So one guy says, 'Well, what's a sasquatch?'
"We all said, 'Ummm... it's a mammal.'
"He said, 'Because I remember learning in school that the Indians grew beans, corn... and sasquatch.'
"We said, 'Yeah.... I think you mean squash.'
"He said, 'Oh. That makes more sense.'"

BWAA HAA HAA!!!!! Sorry (to whomever you quoted), we're not laughing at you ... oh, wait, yes we are!
I'm glad to see that the discussions at their meetings are achieving some deep, philosophical levels.
