Cockroach take two

In the previous note, I mentioned the "name a cockroach for your valentine" contest.

I should clarify that.

It's "Name a hissing Madagascar cockroach for your valentine" contest.

or as the Bronx Zoo puts it:

"...Flowers wilt. Chocolates melt. Roaches are forever.

Can't decide on what to get that special someone for Valentine's Day? Sometimes the answer is all around us, and right where it's been for millions of years—like cockroaches! How better to express your appreciation for that special someone than to name a Madagascar hissing cockroach after them?..."
