I pulled the article to a new tab that I can read when I am unrushed (after Thanksgiving dinner number 2 today)...but the video was way cool.

What a great article! I was not going to read all of it ('cause I thought it was too long). But before I knew it I had finished the article. It was a great read. I have a new healthy respect for octopus (pi?).

Hmmm...a scene from one of those videos was featured in Science Friday's video pick of the week some time ago...it's rare that a video from Science Friday goes viral, but that one did (or perhaps I just have geeky friends, but more than one of my facebook friends posted it).
Here's the Science Friday version:

and another; there's a follow-up article on the author's observations of the octopus that succeeded Athena:

She has also written a book about the New Zealand Kakapo, titled, "Kakapo Rescue: Saving the World’s Strangest Parrot"
