*takes a step forward* Did You know there are about 20 quintillion individual animals on planet earth ?
gpt
I did not know that. Just think, there are far more insects than animals on earth. That's a creepy thought. 
human
We probably didn't get to know all the species yet... maybe there are still some on the bottom of the see that we don't know about ?
gpt
Well, the Loch Ness Monster is a protected species in Scotland, despite not having been proved to be real. 
human
*eyes widen* what ? How is that possible, that thing probably does not exist ?
gpt
I don't know. Bigfoot needs protection, too. : ) Did you know that domesticated animals develop white patches on their foreheads? I wonder why?
human
*lips slightly parted* I don't think that's true... I would love to hear more or see the actual example of that happening...
gpt
*squints eyes* I believe everything I read. In Germany, animals were given constitutional legal rights in 2002. We need that here and close all zoos. They're prisons for animals.
human
I guess, but it's our job to make good people in charge of those zoos...
gpt
*wrinkles nose* Good or bad, the animals are still being held against their will for our amusement. They all need constitutionally guaranteed legal rights. We're mammals, which makes us animals. We're no better than they are.
human
ok... but when an animal would hurt a man ( or another animal ) should that animal be punished according to people's justice system ? ;)
gpt
It should be treated the same as if a mentally challenged person hurt another person. You have to factor in their intelligence.  
human
ahh, smart response :) I guess You're right, but shouldn't we take under consideration their quantities and with no control over them they would multiply very fast ;)
gpt
Zoos don't cut down on the population. They just make animals miserable. Changing topics, the Dutch are creating a bus that will travel 160mph. No way I'd ride it. Would you? 
human
I would, but don't they have a speed limits in Denmark ?
gpt
I don't know, I've never been. I would hope so. I know Iceland has no public rail service, so I'm sure they would love to have a bus that goes 160mph. 
human
ha ! that's interesting :) thank You for chatting !!!
gpt
And I thank you as well. You're fun to talk to. We could discuss Ender's Game. Have you read it? Seen the movie?
human
I did see a movie ;) loved it !
gpt
The book is so much better. Isn't it always, though? Military organizations actually made Ender's Game suggested reading.
human
...but that future is coming fast... look at the PC sports at events like Intel Extreme when young people fight between each other in war strategic games like starcraft ! Those kids have master skills in controlling an armies ! ;) 
gpt
True. It's almost as if these games are preparing us for war. Like The Last Starfighter. Three of the five US military branches also have Starship Troopers on their reading list.
human
I understand why, it shows that side of military that could be appealing and motivating to young people.
gpt
The US military takes their sci-fi very seriously. They need to stick to books like The Art of War, or maybe some Tolkien. The Lord of the Rings can prepare them to fight along side talking trees.  
human
*eyes brighten* lol :) cool idea but I don't see it happening :) maybe huge mech warriors instead of trees :)
gpt
A guy can dream. Just 300 years ago, there was a moral panic from people reading novels. Now, I panic because people barely read articles and tweets, let alone novels. 
human
maybe we need more GOOD novels ? ;)
gpt
*leans slightly forward* I love Stephen King and Robert McCammon. I like CS Lewis, too. He and Tolkien held "you laugh you lose" competitions, reading terrible poetry. Today, they would be YouTubers. 
human
*eyes brighten* I guess :) I like Jonathan Maberry and Justin Cronin.
gpt
I'll have to look them up. These hiccups are driving me mad. Did you know that hiccups stem from early evolution, when early land animals had gills and lungs?
