Two year old Sir Lancelot is the Drake
University Drak, a unique symbol
of higher education under the guidance
of Professor Ken Lloyd and graduate
students Steve Yende and Roy Gilleland,
last can now read the word talk.
Besides the two he already knew
and turn the drink, reads the
word from a white card, then acts
it out. The scientists call it
experimental analysis of behavior.
Plants can't read words that big,
but he can understand the food he gets
as a reward for reading.
I don't know where it lead.
We sort of started out as kind of a
humorous way of talking

here, but we certainly got a lot of
encouragement and he
is cooperated so nicely that it's
motivated us to try more
things.
White says it gets easier to teach
new words as they go along, but
no one's talking about getting Sir
Lancelot a library card.
