Very good Goo, for you. It shows that you might
possibly have enough intelligence to have some
sense of self, maybe. This absurd claim, Goober:

"Dogs, cats, cattle, almost all animals "lower" than
the great apes have no sense of self." - Goo

is based on nothing other than a test that tests
whether or not the animals are capable of
understanding the phenomena of reflection. Just
because they are not able to understand reflection
certainly doesn't mean they have no sense of self
either, Goo. Duh.
