E! Good point. As for lawyers, I saved the following from an anon. SI reporter:
<b/>Using Lawyers for Medical Research<b/>
(PU) An article in the January issue of the presigious American Journal of Medical Research noted that several research labs have begun using lawyers instead of laboratory rats to conduct experiments. They are doing so for a number of reasons:
1. Lawyers are plentiful: there are more of them than all species of rats combined.
2. Lawyers are flexible: there are some things a rat just won't do.
3. Rats can be too lovable; it is rare that anyone would become attached to a lawyer.
The article did note that there have been some minor problems in making the change from rats to lawyers; for example, the data does not always correlate well with humans. Nevertheless, the labs will continue pursuing their new approach, according to the report.
