I think unless Mosca showed some intelligence about how to jitter, when in the vicinity of hazards or rewards, it would be *extremely* frustrating. Remember the real fly is in total control of its own movements and only appears "jittery" to us because with its small brain it thinks such thoughts as it has a hell of a lot faster than we do. --Roger Williams - Archives (includes files) at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/archives/ Unsub & more at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/
