Flying lemurs don't fly- they aren't lemurs! Every single inch of your body is bombarded by more than a sextillion (1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000) air molecules every second! The most heavily armed border zone in the world- between North and South Korea, has become a refuge for the Red-crowned crane- one of the rarest birds in the world!

I didn’t know that air came in molecules. Nitrogen, Oxygen, Argon, Carbon Dioxide and other trace gases make the mixture of air.

Those red-crowned cranes are rare because they can’t find enough food to fill the bill.

That continuous bombardment of air molecules is enough to wear you down, after a while!

That bombardment of Puddleglum2 puns is enough to wear you down, also.

@dkram,Sugar Gliders are dying out too, …unless they are just playing possum!

Mine fields are great places for cranes – they only weigh around twenty pounds or so, and that’s not heavy enough to set them off.

If they don’t this or aint that, then what are they?

I need to save myself from bombardment. I’m going swimming.

It says “every single inch.” Shouldn’t it be every square inch?
