   Oh. So you point at Chimps, wet your pants & shriek "TOOLS!" without   
   explaining how you determined if decisions are being made but, when   
   you see far complex behaviors in an invertebrate you can't accept that   
   you're witnessing far more complex behavior because... "HOW'S DE   
   DETERMINE & STUFF?!?!"   
      
   I just burped and then blew it in your direction.

   Oh. So the ants aren't using their tools appropriately? Their more   
   sophisticated behaviors aren't appropriate?   
      
   You're trying to rig the conversation, avoid dealing with new   
   information.   
      
   Pretty typical of the overly religious mind.
