I wonder if the guy takes his clipboard and pencil, gets into a kangaroo pouch, says let's go and then goes about counting. Seems like that could be a difficult task.

And you can't stop until your done because they keep moving around. It is hard to count in the dark, even if you have a flashlight. How do you know you didn't already count that one. Maybe the guy gave up and said, "Hmmm. 40 million sounds good. No one will notice the overage anyway."

ok, you two got my curiosity with the kangaroo count...
all i could find was a satalite count for kangaroo rats and a pellet count for kangaroos... either way, too much counting. and then with the pellets, how do you know which poop belongs to which kangaroo?

Brainwaves are least likely to strike in the afternoon, according to a survey that suggests office workers have little chance of solving problems after lunch.
The least creative time in the day is 4.33pm, with 92 per cent of people admitting to feeling uninspired in the afternoon.
The poll of 1,426 people showed that a quarter of us stay up late burning the midnight oil when seeking inspiration.
Taking a shower is the most popular way of getting our creative juices flowing, with 44 per cent of us heading beneath the nozzle when in need of a mental breakthrough.
It appears that bathrooms have a key role to play in bringing on brainwaves. Greek scientist Archimedes is reported to have shouted "Eureka!" ("I have found it!") after the spillage of water from his bath helped him understand how to measure volume.
The research also showed that 58 per cent of people forget their best ideas by failing to write them down immediately, although women are more successful at keeping note of their brainwaves.
A third of all people polled aged 35 or more choose to write notes on the backs of their hands, the poll by the Crowne Plaza hotel chain showed.

I do a lot of thinking in the shower too. But then the same as Mz too. Last night I could of got back up (hubby was snoring very loudly) and wrote a story.

I think I feel more productive at night too, but I thinks it has to do with needing that "down time" alone. I need that couple hours to myself after everyone has gone to bed...
4:33 pm is the exact time i am least creative

I think I do my best thinking at night when I'm trying to get to sleep!
Me too. And if I don't get up and write it down the thought is lost. I never get up and write it down. Imagine what I could be if I would have shrugged off the laziness for two minutes here and there. I may know what I want to be when I grow up.
I think the 4:30 thing comes from people being finished their day at 5 and not wanting to start anything new or a project that would hard to drop in the middle of doing.
