What is it with you guys and snakes? Is Ophidiophobia contagious?
excellent prose snipped

I know folks who will kill all snakes on sight and I think
that's a real shame. I taught the conservation and nature
merit badge classes at Boy Scout camp during the summers
when I was a kid. One of the requirements for the Reptile
Study badge was to watch a snake move from under a pane
of glass and describe the movement. So I had to have a
snake to teach the class. Mine was the only mouse free
cabin in the whole camp and my Mom never poked around in
my cabin lookin' for Playboy magazines and cigarettes like
some of the other staff Moms. ;-)
