I like the rock/paper/scissors idea (sorry; deleted the message, so I can't
give proper credit. ; ( )
Something along the lines of a food chain - - predator 1 (rodent) preys on
scorpion(prey 1/predator 2) which preys on wasp(prey 2/parasite 1), which
parasitizes predator 1. (this would be too cool if it really works - one
RCX dies, mini-RCXs crawl out of the detritus - - okay, so I'm a dreamer - -
bring on the nanotech!)
