Replying to LO4367 --

Everything's been snipped:

"play" in the animal kingdom is training. Notice the cuffs, nudges,
rolls. I do no believe it is intended as play. The true learning
organization resides in a deer herd after the first shot of rifle season,
or the grouse as the food gets thin. We can intellectualize and
manipulate the semantic coding strip until it is no longer recognizable,
but we are not going to learn as a team until we need to survive as a
team.
