Sorry for your ordeal -- I suppose you had to maintain H control while freaking out over the intruder and the bite. Kudos -- and best wishes for recovery. Since we are off topic -- I'll pose a question that I've pondered while watching bats over the woods in my own back yard. Here it goes -- does anyone know the answer to this one:
If bats are blind, how do they know when it's dusk or dark?

"Many people think bats are blind, but in fact they can see almost as well as humans. However, at night, their ears are more important than their eyes - they use a special sonar system called 'echolocation,' meaning they find things using echoes."

I went back in for round two, which was just two shots and not in the belly. Not too bad. It's a drag to do it in the ER, though. The drugs are expensive and have a short shelf life, so most clinics and doctors don't carry them.
