Joe,

Are you talking about marmots or carmots? I've often heard of the latter
ravaging parking lots in search of edible auto parts (hence their name),
but the former's true eating habits remain a mystery to me.

Now, were one to analyse this whole thread allegorically (and why the hell
not, this is the lug, after all), one might takes as one's point of
departure the fact that "R"abbits and "M"armots are in fact related -
through their initial consonants - to a certain camera occasionally
discussed on this list. (Ah, the vodka is beginning to take effect....) I'm
not sure what any of this means, but it may actually explain why a fair
amount of precious lug energy has today been spent discussing rodents!

At any rate, I am certain that Martin - or some other luggish philologist -
can explain to the more befuddled of us the ins and outs (as it were) of
the marmot digestive system. Until such time I remain

yours sincerely,
