Camped along Mule Creek Road, Guthrie AZ, March 29, 2008
I'm camped for the night along Mule Creek Road (AZ 78) in the Apache - Sitgreaves National Forest, about 11 miles east of Guthrie AZ and a mile west of the Arizona / New Mexico border.
Primitive camping along Mule Creek Road
After having spent the night in the first rest area west of the New Mexico border when I came through here a couple of weeks ago I discovered the next morning on my journey down off the plateau there are several really nice primitive campgrounds a few miles farther west that I would have preferred to stay at. I'm at one of them now.

Messing Up Their Results
... Jack Panksepp found that laboratory-reared rats who've never seen or smelled a cat stop playing the instant you put a tuft of cat hair in their play space. Since frightened animals don't play, that's a good indication that those rats are afraid. ... This experience got Dr Panksepp to thinking about how many research laboratories might be messing up their results due to researchers' coming to work smelling like their pet cats.
