Interesting fact

I read it on the internet, so it must be true: The male platypus is poisonous. These little buggers have spurs on their hind limbs (like a rooster), except the spurs are poisonous. Apparently, the poison isn't deadly to humans, just painful and scary.

    I beg to differ; while true (about the poisonous spur), it is definately not interesting. In fact, it doesn't even rate on the dwarf-tossing mildy diverting scale of non-importance.

    But it is nice to see that 12 years of education and a degree in medicine hasn't completely eroded your ability to write in the mother tongue.
