I was watching PBS a month or two ago. There's a newer version of NOVA but I don't remember the name, it's NOVA _______something. It is a little bit more watered down, but still gives a ton of information.

There was one segment on how different types of creatures that school react to different things, yet there is no specific "leader" of the school.

I wasn't paying enough attention, but I think they called this thing "Emergence."

Did anyone see that?

Excerpt from Robert Crais' "The Monkey's Raincoat:"
"She took another microscopic bite of her sandwich, then pushed it away. Maybe she absorbed nutrients from her surroundings."
