Good gracious, Jerry. Tell us more. Are you saying that motivated snails are quick on their feet?

(Appropo of nossing, I just recalled seeing a demonstration of the beneficial skin effects of snail slime on the human face.)

(Second thought: On television I saw a turtle trudging off the roadway, at the speed that we are all accustomed to assoicating with the creatures. Then a huma being tried to pick it up- the turtle turned back and sped the other direction. Is it possible that we human beings are being toyed with?)
