A few weeks ago the scientific journal, Nature, carried an article by an
Australian marine biologist who's been keeping a close watch on some fish.

After observing them for a year, he concluded that sexy males die young -
probably worn out by the attentions of female fish - whereas ugly ones live
longer! :-)

I'm starting to get old!  I think there's a lot to learn from watching fish!
