[net.space] Dolphin inelligence

DVW.AGM@MIT-OZ (11/17/82)

Although there are many well-documented reports of dolphins 
rescuing drowning humans (by carrying them toward shore), there
is an odd lack of data on dolphins that have carried humans
AWAY from the shore.  I hope that the reason is obvious, ...

I don't believe that we can attribute intelligence to dolphins
until (if ever) we are able to communicate with them.  The chances
at present for this look slim.
