[AccessD] Surrogate keys suck

Very occasionally they do I suspect, but I totally agree with your sentiments, I am always impressed at how fast flocks of parrots go past our house, they are blisteringly fast and in close formation, but they hold it together. I also enjoy watching the territorial birds dogfight for over the backyard - amazing ability and skills - brilliant stuff.

I would suggest that is what tens of millions of years of evolution can do for you.  We need to practice A LOT MORE!

:)  *flapping arms at desk...* hmmmm....  Long way to go for our species before we master that lill trick natively.

cheers
Darryl.

I'm watching the birds at the feeder at my window and doing proximity
calculations. As one flies up to the trees,

I am dreaming of how humans could do that in a personal vehicle, but I
realize that our reaction times are not sufficient to overcome the speed at
which another might fly into our space without a highly sensitive proximity
warning.

So why don't the birds fly into each other?
