It is an important and popular fact that things are not always as they seem. For instance, man had always assumed that he was the most intelligent life form on Earth, instead of the third. The second, happened to be the dolphins, who had known of the impending destruction of the Earth, long before it happened, and the first were a small, furry species who spent most of their time in cages, running round on wheels or nibbling seeds. The humans had always believed that they ran tests on these creatures, which was so far from the truth, it would have put the Encyclopaedia Galactica to shame. This is just a little story based on The Hitchhikers Guide to the galaxy.
