I asked for that, didn't I? What I meant was "Forgetting the question of whether birds have knees". Greg did say "Birds don't have knees and the joint that is equivalent to the knee in humans is well hidden by feathers". Is there any technical reason why this joint shouldn't be called a knee, despite it being the equivalent of one? Peter Shute -------------------------- Sent using BlackBerry |
