(Original recording made in 1997)

Almost 30 years ago I had my only conversation with the scholar Barbara
Noske. A native of Holland, she was in Canada on the day we had this
telephone discussion.

Do you believe animals have feelings? Humans have feelings, but then we
are really just animals, right? We went deep into this subject-my guest
was a woman with strong opinions.
