It`s actually a pretty good article but the analogy should have been been used to extract parallels of instructions on modes of actions for real world crisis.

If we could learn from our mistakes,let alone others,life would be so much easier.

Haha! Very interesting analogy. The fact that our good sea cucumber lives 4000 feet below sea level in total darkness could be the reason why the nation has not been able to witness and emulate its extraordinary way of defending itself. Our people are more comfortable with the ways of the animals which they get to see everyday... the cats, the mice, the dogs and last but certainly not the least, the donkeys.
