   It's a relief to see that the cat scientists appear to be decades behind their human counterparts.

   Well I hope it works out better for the kids at intel than it did for certain other child wizzes!

   Yes. The cat scientists appear to be decades behind. But, I ask you, who posted the photos?
   As any cat lover knows, cats have an innate ability to feign innocence.

   For a second I thought you would be talking about the wife of a geneticist I used to work with, who is a PhD in, I think, Animal Behavioralism or the appropriate actual term is.  Her research involved spoiling the shit out of a lab full of cats. 
    
   I do that too, only it's not called research.  It's just called "home."
