<p>88.242.247.128: /* Annotation */</p> <hr /> <div>The esteemed behavioural philosopher from the [[Bonk School]] and author of [[Ritual Aggression in Pubescent Rats]], a theory used to make sense of Ankh-Morpork street gangs.<br /> <br /> ==Annotation==<br /> Another reference to Roundworld behavioural psychologist B.F. Skinner, who noted from some rather unpleasant practical experiments that too many rats crammed into too small a space inevitably led to territorial violence and savage dominance games - the rats took it out on each other, rather than gang up together to declare war on the behavioural scientists and break out of their confinement. Perhaps a reason why [[Vetinari]] tolerates a certain amount of gang violence in the City.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> [[Category:Discworld characters]]</div>
