"Evidence indicates that cats were first tamed in Egypt. The Egyptians stored grain, which attracted rodents which attracted cats. I don't think this is accurate. It is certainly not the whole story. Cats didn't start as mousers. Weasels and snakes and dogs are more efficient as rodent control agents. I posulate that cats started as psychic companions, as Familiars, and have never deviated from this function."

Thanks man! I dig Burroughs. Ever read Adding Machine? A friend of mine lent it to me and it's a collection of essays he wrote.
