> Have you checked out the current reader poll question? I've always thought that geckos were amphibins, not reptiles.

I always thought of amphibians as frogs, toads and salamanders. Where do geckos lay eggs?

That question gave me some problems. My alma mater was always the Blue Raiders and the mascot was a guy in a confederate uniform riding a horse. Some say he was Nathan Bedford Forrest, but we always called him "the jackass riding a mule." Anyway, that was then and this is now. Some people felt that Forrest was a little too racist so the mascot was redone as just a horse. I had already clicked "human," before the change occurred to me. Was "horse" listed? I sometimes wonder if Forrest got a bum rap. Sure he founded the KKK, but I don't think he had in mind the kind of organization that it turned out to be.

My HS mascot was a bird. A bluejay.
