Zach and Adelie were having a conversation about the first moon landing. Zach shared the quote, "One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." Then they had this conversation:
Adelie: Why is it always mankind? It should be people-kind. It's like they're saying men are better."
Zach: Are men better?
Adelie: No! We're equal. Maybe I'll write a letter to the president and tell him to change it to people-kind."
Zach: Are men better?
Adelie: No! We're equal. Maybe I'll write a letter to the president and tell him to change it to people-kind."

Zach overheard Adelie and Briggs having this conversation about raising chickens.
Briggs: It you have chickens, you get lots of eggs. But then you might end up with lots of baby chicks.
Adelie: It doesn't work that way. You have to have a rooster to have baby chicks because you have to have a boy and a girl to have babies, just like with people. Except people don't lay eggs.
Briggs: Right. They have to cut the mom open to get the baby out with people.
Adelie: That's only when they get stuck.
Briggs: How do they get them out when they don't get stuck.
Long pause...
Adelie: I think you should just wait and talk to Mom.
