Lead story in today’s New York Times magazine. 11 pages. last paragraph: Perched now, like entranced children, along the banks of their respective simulated streams, scientists are staring for hours at the least human of creatures - everything from bullying fruit flies to ravenous, oversexed water striders and fishing spiders to perilously fearless hordes of armored stickleback fish - and are beginning to see in them not just their distinct patterns of behavior but also something deeply and distinctly recognizable. Something, well, not altogether inhuman.
