(BURLINGTON FREE PRESS) - Mice, endowed by their creator with brains the size of rice grains (medium grain, cooked, no pilaf, thanks), are at this time of year smart enough to seek out warmer environs, just as geese, with pebble-sized brains, do by flying south. It's homo sapiens, with its powerful grapefruit-sized brain, that hunkers down in Vermont and awaits nature's wallop. Go figure.
