I always forget that horseshoe crabs aren't extinct. I think it's because they're so plausibly a random wind-up toy stuck underneath a bakelite copy of a fossilised shell, every time I see one.

They're the opposite of extinct.

I don't think I'd ever seen one before, even in aquaria. I was astounded to see it move.

I'll do your Cat and Girl comic tomorrow. The weblog restriction makes it really difficult because it's not restrictive enough.
