Anne, thanks for the well-wishes regarding the MFA! I saw a news story several days ago, and thought of you, because I know how you adore whales. I meant to send you a link, but like so many things it got away from me. Here it is: http://www.cnn.com/2006/TECH/science/11/27/humpback.whales.brains.reut/
Thanks, Ginger! I actually saw that story the other day, and immediately went to our library databases & found the original article. :) Most of it was way way WAY over my head -- a biologist I ain't! -- but there were cool pictures of whale brain cells. I always knew those critters were smarter than most people gave them credit for.

Oops, that didn't come through right. Try this: Study: Humpback whales have 'human' brain cells
