		The mental complexity of a werewolf in Crinos form is quite comparable to that of a human, presumably a metis pup is larger than a human infant, they come out already armed with claws and teeth, and there's the spiritual aspect of their growth as well.
		Metis are often played as your typical "oppressed outcast" suffering under an unjust, obsolete system of tribal justice that needs to get with the modern age of tolerance.
		Their entire extistence is tragic, for the metis, the parents, the sept, and because they cannot breed, the Garou as a whole.

	Galileo Swims In Radiation Soup To Take Closeups Of Jovian Inner Moons
		Because of the late stage of the mission, JPL decided to lower the orbit and risk three flybys of the volcanically active moon Io, 300,000 kilometers closer to Jupiter's center.
		Thus, as the spacecraft sped toward the far reaches of its elliptical orbit after capturing the images of the moons, the data were relayed in highly compressed form -- sacrificing detail but greatly reducing downlink time, giving researchers a chance to learn where the moons were located within each camera frame.
		As a comparison, the Simonelli team also is releasing a montage of images of the moons taken in November 1997 from approximately 700,000 kilometers from Jupiter's center as the spacecraft was completing its first two years in orbit.
