If it looks like a rat and smells like a rat, it just might be a landmine
November 20th, 2008Let me start by saying that I’m not a big fan of reblogging. I think there’s a fine line between greedily sucking at the spigot of Googlejuice by lazily link-posting (on the one hand) and hyperlinking into the central nervous system of the blogosphere to share a really cool story (on the other).
This is one of those “on the other hand” times. For the assuredly small minority of FringeHog readers who aren’t already rabid Ethan Zuckerman fans, I bring to your attention a cautionary yet inspirational story about the ravages of war, the boundless ingenuity of humans and the transformation of a commonplace rodent into a hero. See Ethan’s fabulous post Sniffing out the future in Morogoro, Tanzania. Seriously, it will make your day.
(And if you’re looking for a holiday gift, you can’t do much better than adopting a Hero Rat).
