Off topic, it is interesting that snails have helped us appreciate that the perception of time is quantized.
As humans get older, they can appreciate and process fewer events per second. I believe young adults appreciate up to 20 'BIPs'per second, slowing in old age to 12-15 per second. This can also be measured by EEG, apparently, and this speed correlates very well with IQ. A 'BIP' is a "Basic Period of Information Processing", and is about 50 msec in an individual with IQ 120; if the IQ is low, eg 78, the BIP is about double that, 100 msec.
If you tap a snail on its head, with a light stick, and gently, it can discriminate up to 4 beats per second. Faster than that, it cannot tell the difference between rapid but still intermittent tapping, and having the stick resting on its head continuously.
Zoomer, however, looks like he might make into the gifted program.

As one get older, time seems to pass FASTER. Now we know why. We are slower, are aware of less things.
In the end time will slow down to nothing and it will stop. We will enter the realm of eternity.
I cought a snail in the field and call him Meteor. He/she seems alert and trainable. Since foreign snails are not allowed to run, we'll need to get a British passport.
A grateful nation has now promoted Zoomer to President.

...and Malema is raising cattle on the Limpopo. He has a blog too!

President Zoomer is safe for the time being.
Praise the Lord.

Uxolo! It is not safe to send enemies into exile. They tend to return.
We will see.
He might become ill again.
Or meet an accident.

The Limpopo weldt is infested with snouted cobras (Naja haje annulifera) and the booomslang (Dispholidus typus). May be President Zoomer is lucky.
