BENNETT Speaking of education, I came across an interesting article the other day written by a James Lipton, an actor and writer of Broadway musicals and TV dramas. The article discusses various animal groups. For example, most of us are aware of the common references to groups of animals, that a group of lions would be called a pride, a large number of geese would be called a gaggle, or that a significant number of similar fish swimming together would be called a school of fish. Lipton goes much further though in specifying various sundry groups of animals and what theyre named. Some of the terms he states received their first official stamp in medieval and 15th century society and have lasted through the ages to the present time.
