Or almost. Candy asked me to move this thread to Miscellany, and it actually got here. However, a marker was supposed to have been left where it used to be with an explanation for the move, but it has disappeared completely from there. But the important part got done. Edit: I saw that video the other day, and they certainly appear to be having a "conversation"--I think the one on the left is pointing out that he has socks on and his brother doesn't. I am not so sure the non-sock brother understood, though. I am not a baby-lover, but this really is cute.
