DUDES! BABES! I made it on the Straight Dope Question of the Day! Click on the Home Page on the article about turtles. Nov. 16. I e-mailed the question to Cecil many, many months ago, and now the answer is available to the teeming millions. ---

Last year, Cecil answered my question about [Japanese soldiers](http://www.straightdope.com/columns/000310.html) who refused to surrender until LONG after WW2 was over. One guy held out till 1980! (To be fair, he didn’t know that the war was over. OTOH, he held out for 35 years! There is such a thing as too much patience.) That’s a pretty cool question about turtles. ---
