Making Light is wonderful place.  What makes it so endearing is not just the quality of the posts themselves, which is high, but the insightful and often witty comments.  In the case of this post about a program to eliminate brown tree snakes on Guam by parachuting dead mice laced with acetaminophen onto the island, those comments included the phrase “enraged tonne of recently-perforated scientifically interesting blubber.”
