Laughter

Hmmm...

Here's an odd question...  Why do humans laugh?  No other animals do.
The closest that comes to mind is when a troop of primates will try to
intimidate other animals.  What behavior evolved into laughter, and is
that behavior general enough that it would be carried across the various
barriers of differing races.

The question is then no longer, 'how do the alien races laugh' but 'DO they
laugh?'  I admit that roleplaying an alien would get almost TOO alien
without laughter and the ability to laugh.  But in a realistic sence I wonder
if it really would happen.

Yeah, Ok, So I copied Tweel's laugh from The Auburn Football team's Golden
Eagle mascot.  (the aviary is just outside the Physics labs)  But I'm no
psi!  I have no idea what is going through Tiger's brain when she starts
calling "Sseeya!  Sseeya!  Sseeya!" at me.

WAAAARR EAGLE!
