To get published, you have to discover something new. "New" means either novel or contrary to the assumptions. Novel is pretty hard these days, especially when you're stuck in a lab. So everyone tries to disprove theories, which means that you can find evidence to support any opinion. Why bother discussing things anymore when researchers are being so disingenuous.<br /><br />I bet your experience at the rescue is far more experience than these "scientists" ever had.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07625315968391918427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1036593475685541537.post-14590238023036101182009-10-15T17:13:15.613-07:002009-10-15T17:13:15.613-07:00Thanks Mary!Thanks Mary!Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07625315968391918427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1036593475685541537.post-88877096695771390092009-10-15T12:48:41.703-07:002009-10-15T12:48:41.703-07:00Your whole wrap-up made me laugh.

It sounded like a fake study!<br /><br />The parrot at the rescue where I volunteer that received the most attention from other parrots would certainly disagree with the conclusions (though I know one anecdotal exception means nothing).<br /><br />She was a B&G macaw in her 20s and one of the homeliest parrots I have ever seen. She had wonky eyes, major feather loss, arthritic feet. I mean, you just felt pity for her when you looked at her.<br /><br />However, there were at least 4 parrots I can think of that fell in love with her, and my H did too (he talks about her every day referencing the regret he feels for not adopting her).<br /><br />Though maybe those parrots and my H are considered low-quality mates :)<br /><br />In any case, sorry for the rambly comment and thanks for the laughs!Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06645791926538907697noreply@blogger.com
