Where did all of this "human special powers" stuff come from? I read the threads about it in the past, but what does it have to do with the topic of this thread here?<P>Let's try to keep on topic, shall we?<P>------------------

That could end in a whole new discussion on competition instincts and personalities.

So said genecatlow:
<B>> That could very easily qualify as a 'city' in a modern context. But the furs who lived there only thought of it as 'home'.</B>
Hmmm... That reminds me the Ancient Greek's "polis" concept.<P><B>> Hmm.. maybe there should be more insect-type furries somewhere in my comic? <=)</B>
LOL! <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/biggrin.gif"> Well, if you have a good idea about it... <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/wink.gif"> Insect furries are incredibly rare (I suppose even our supermiscigenated friend Sunblaze Wildfire isn't an insect! <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/biggrin.gif">), and, as far as I've seen around, really hard to draw.<P><B>> In large cities like Bridgeway, where the population is mostly
> urban and detached from nature, humans and furries don't get along well.</B>
Isn't Furrinston suffering the same effect? Like with Lloyd?
But Lloyd's case seems to be based on fear. That's not quite the same proccess... Is it?<P>*****<P>So said UncleMonty:
<B>> The real fun is just beginning, I'd guess.</B>
I'd say the in-festival fun is done and the comic-reading action fun has begun! <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/rolleyes.gif"><P>------------------

No it isn't, as I mentioned - furries will
disagree with each other not on matters of
being furry, but on matters of opinions and
beliefs.
