How cool. Perhaps he raptured, leaving his body behind, together w his feathers. Kidding. I notice too, that alex's owner was starting to look a lot like alex.

S who hopes he doesn't start looking like his cat

Wow, that's really neat.

I don't know anything about the bird really or the work that Dr Pepperberg did but I did notice that she did her research in theoretical chemistry... does the work she did witht the bird really hold water in the psychologist/neurologist/cognitive scientist community??

Just curious, you know, for example you always hear of some Dr So-and-so doing research in some field like biology but when you read into them, they have their doctorate in like, business management and their word holds no authority in the field of biology...

Anyone know the real scoop??
