It is of interest to note that while some dolphins are reported to have
learned English -- up to 50 words used in correct context -- no human
being
has been reported to have learned dolphinese.

And that is a very nifty quote to use as your .sig. I'm gonna save it!

Also interesting to note that humans aren't caught in fishing nets
deployed my the dolphins and served in casserole along tuna and cheese,
nor subjugated by dolphins are taught to react to verbal signals. My dog
knows about 12 words of English. Guide dogs for the blind often know
German. So what?
