> Tonight during a little campfire to warmup after a swim my son decides to ask if the wood likes to be burned. My answer it doesn't care. Daughters answer it doesn't have feelings. Son replies everything has feelings.

plants do have some mechanism for sensing that they are being damaged... some sort of 'pain' receptor that has been scientifically messured... but once its a log, im sure that the log doesnt care if it is burned or not...

pet rocks on the other hand...
