The canary, a songbird species, was used as recently as 1987 in the coal mining industry to warn miners of the danger of toxic gas buildup. It's not that the canaries were trained to sing out a warning, but rather, they would succumb to the toxic gases before human miners could - and the cessation of the chirping would also provide an audible indication that something could be amiss.
The three ring circus in the closing days of the 2011 New York legislative session, with controversy swirling around the extension of rent control, the imposition of a 2% cap on school tax increases, and the marriage "equality" bill, is providing advocates for GENDA (The Gender Expression Non-Discrimination Act) a foretaste of what the scenario might be for the 2012 session, if GENDA were to be taken up by the Republican-controlled state senate.
