If the farmer tell you that the cougars are not eating the chickens, but the foxes are, who would you trust in this case? Of course the farmer. If he tells you foxes, and you kill them, and it is really the cougars, he is still screwed. If he tells you the cougars are not the problem, the only reason he would tell you that is if the cougars are not the problem. He has no reason to lie.

But both the foxes and the cougars are unreliable because they have a strong reason to lie.

If he's going to use an analogy, he could at least put some thought into an original one. I mean, how many times have we heard the old chicken-farmer-caught-between-the-cougars-and-foxes bit? He might as well have used that tired old Balloon-salesman-in-the-land-of-porcupines-and-puffer-fish analogy.

Twelve thrusts in twelve separate sessions.

One party achieves orgasm. Then falls asleep.

Duh.

Duh.
12 times? Before breakfast? I guess they are short naps.

The Lotka-Volterra model describes interactions between two species in an ecosystem, a predator and a prey.

If we let R(t) and F(t) represent the number of hens and cougars, respectively, that are alive at time t, then the Lotka-Volterra model is:

dR/dt = a*R - b*R*F
dF/dt = e*b*R*F - c*F


where the parameters are defined by:

-a is the natural growth rate of hens in the absence of predation,
-c is the natural death rate of cougars in the absence of food,
-b is the death rate per encounter of hens due to predation,
-e is the efficiency of turning predated hens into cougars.

The model is much more complex with two predators.

FYI, this is the exact shit that made me raise the white flag in second semester college math, after living a high school life as one of the top math team geeks in the Midwest. Makes me cry.
