Well, a lot of it is the demographic change here since MIkey's big viral video.

Okay, sorry to go off topic here, but what video are you talking about? I realize I have been absent from the forum for a few months due to work and all that fun stuff. I noticed lots of new members and I have seen the average age must have dropped quite a bit judging by many of the posts.

I think it was around the time the fire ant videos came out and got millions of views that we had to seriously consider opening a daycare.

If this is a daycare, then I'm not an adult (well, that's true. Has anyone seen my milk bottle?)

 

-I'm actually 13 so I'm still young :P

Perhaps if mikey made a video about the effect of non native ants on the ecosystem the kiddos would stop trying to buy ship and release non native ants and captive native ants (it's good that Hawaii ant asked for info before releasing or shipping his or hers ants)
