Oxygen was visiting with her sister Nitrogen in her beloved camper-van.

Nitrogen noticed that the windows were open. "Don't you have any screens?" she asked.

"Nah," Oxygen said. "I like to sleep with the windows wide open."

"Don't you get flies and mosquitoes inside your camper-van?"

"Yeah," Oxygen said, "but the spiders take care of 'em."

"But then, don't you get SPIDERS in your camper-van? That's even worse."

"Yeah," Oxygen said again, "but the bats take care of 'em."

Nitrogen was a veterinarian, and she was not easily frightened by animals. However, she decided to stop asking questions at "bats."
