Fruit flies Dream and much about nothing!!


I read an article in a Spanish magazine about the power of the mind. I think it was an interview with Eduardo Punset—but I cannot be sure because the paper has been recycled. In the article there was a reference about scientists being able to determine conclusively that fruit flies dream. When I told my wife about this important discovery she started laughing and has not stopped since. Can someone out there help me corroborate this and wipe the smile of her face! In the same article there was also an anecdote about a neurologist’s conference where one speaker affirmed to the audience that if ears of baby rabbits were cut off at birth in x generations all rabbits would be born with no ears. A Russian scientist in the audience queried this statement by asking the speaker to explain why in Russia all baby girls were born virgins.
