..that the earthworm appears to have become among the most common - if not the most common - worm in our soil because of human agriculture (accidentally chopping them in half with tools like shovels, making 2 of 1).
There's an interesting dilemma, regarding insects and agriculture/gardening. I don't like to harm insects, even those that try to bite me. But I have incidentally killed more than my share driving a shovel into the ground. Hopefully, I've at least made a lot of new earthworms.
(Funny enough, as I write this to you, a simple house spider has just come down from the ceiling and dangled over my lap top!)
