.....by building "a better mouse trap" and you only had 3 months to do it, you could take a "team" of up to 4 people from different professions or family/friends to help.(if you even choose the help. You could do it alone, that's okay some people work best solo!).....How would you build it? What people would you choose for their wisdom? Would you "break" under the pressure of the 3 month time limit? ...do your brains hurt yet?....LOL! p.s don't forget to pack a lunch build'n mouse traps...and "better" one's for that matter..can make a person weary!....have fun with this! peace Dissposition BELIEVE !!!!!

First of all, I do work better alone and secondly I've raised thousands of the critters and know a little bit about their behavior... Why trap 'em ,when it's easier to get them drunk? Let me explain... Mice and rats are natural grain eaters and are known to gravitate towards these foods when they are available... My favorite Scotch Whisky is Johnnie Walker http://www.johnniewalker.com and it's known for a fact that discriminating mice prefer grains that are somewhat slightly fermented with truly Magickal techniques that this Scotch is known for... I would simply open a bottle or two,get some fermented grains and a few snacks like peanuts, popcorn and maybe an interesting DVD or two... ( Maybe a few Guinness Stouts on the side) and invite the little beggars in for a "tasting" party... The hangovers that would result from a good session or two would have the mice pleading with me to let them leave the Planet for good! :) Oh, wait, I might just need a Rocket Scientist to help me there! :) LOL!

Good Scotch has been known to cause kitties to revert into their former buffalo saber-toothed incarnations... This almost certainly would become an international concern what with what happens to Fred Flinstone as he attempts to put out his cat every night! And besides that, who really wants an 800 lb pissed off monster, who remembers every single " Bad Kitty!" you've ever said to her? Think about it....

If I were told that building a better mouse trap would save existence I would emigrate! There is only one reason why that would save existence and that would be that the nasty little vermin have brought the plague back. I'd get out the country, phone the Pied Piper (you didn't say my employees couldn't be fictional!) and get the whole lot lured into a big furnace.

I do believe that, in my infinite wisdom, I would select the following 4 individuals. 1. a pest control specialist. 2. an engineer 3. another pest control specialist 4. my dog (she likes to catch mice) I would then take the appropriate action and delegate the construction of this better mouse trap to the people who know so much and cut my dog loose on the hypothetical room full of mice and see what happens. My bet would be the pest control guys would beat the living tar out of the engineer, and resort to what they already know. Meanwhile, my dog has killed all of the mice and the problem is solved.

It would be a waste of time asking me I'm afraid .. far too many disabilities to have either the energy or the ability to build anything these days .. And I'm not even sure I would want to save a world that is destroying nature faster and faster .. is embroiled in war after war ... and where the people can't even manage to live together for more than 5 minutes without having to lash out in some direction or other ... But as I would know the world is ending ... ohh boyy would I have fun for that last 12 weeks ...
