Jim, the rats in the cage thing was a population density study. They started out with a really big cage and everything was pretty chill. They kept making it a little bit smaller every so often. As it got smaller ... stress levels went up. There was more homicide and infanticide amongst a host of other social problems. It's kind of a commentary on city life as opposed to country living.
