I can see it now, the northern ant colonies want to free the Aphid's while the southern wants to keep them for their plantations.
But that is realy cool.

I remember when I was a kid, there was a huge campaign for us to find argentine ants. If found, they would go and destroy the nests. I don't think they were too successful… |

Cool! I read a sci-fi short story once about a time traveller who went to the far (post nuclear holocaust) future and found some strange ants without exoskeletons, with internal skeletons. The time traveller thought they were a fascinating species, so he took the ants back in time and dropped them off in a safe location, to see how they would evolve over time. Then he went back to his home era, and found that there was nothing left, except giant ant-like creatures who had grown and evolved and taken over the whole world… It was a cool story, I probably read it 20 years ago, but it left an impression on me. Um… so while I don't welcome our new ant overlords, I will be watching this development with interest! -Alex in Alaska |

Interesting. We humans have finally achieved world peace! Just not for ourselves. There's a lesson in here somewhere. I just don't know what it is. |
