For those who have many watchers, and for those who don’t have many, it is hard to know how one retains that interest as well as receive more. This article explores the basics of watchers and how we react to certain situations. Although it does not affect some deviants, and the tips are generally related to common sense, we hope the article is a worthwhile read and that the majority learn something from reading this.

So I'm wondering if the wife is a "queen" ant. Might make a nice companion piece.

Still, great work. We don't see insects TF really often. It's a nice change from the routine.
A well-known problem in Computer Science which has no known efficient solution. The problem is to find a tour of N cities (visiting all cities once) with the shortest length. Sounds easy, but once you get to a possible set of cities of 64, there's 64! (factorial) possible paths to evaluate if you do a 'generate all tours and search to find the smallest' approach. If you don't have a calculator, 64! ~= 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (ie. a really big number).
Using virtual 'ants' (aka. agents) a (non-proven) optimal solution can be found in a few minutes, as apposed to a few billion years it would take to brute-force search the tours.
Thats the general idea anyways
