    Dammit, sorry Joel. I looked back a little bit, but obviously not far enough.

    Still want to eat those ants.

    Wouldn’t they be a sweet addition to transparent pie?

    I blame Sheila for not making an “ants” category.

    I blame Sheila for a wide range of failures, both in the realm of taxonomy and elsewhere.

    Add some luciferase to the drops and turn the lights off.
