On second thought, I've moved this section to the stub [[domestic turkey]]. I had started that without metadata deliberately, pending the conclusion of the great turkey debates. So, that can very easily be cut/moved/deleted/pasted somewhere else, whatever is finally decided. I'm not making any determinations what that should be, only that the factoids shouldn't be at [[roast turkey]].

Social turkeys
I completed the metadata mostly to share something. While I do like the domestic turkey as food, I'm also charmed by some of the wild turkeys in my area. There's one that lives somewhere behind the library, and occasionally struts out to inspect, and sometimes even socialize, with people in the parking lot. Another spends much time on the commercial fishing period and is said to act like a dog that owns it. --Howard C. Berkowitz 03:03, 14 October 2010 (UTC)
- No problem, thanks, I got interrupted. By the way, I wasn't sure about the Benjamin Franklin thing. Truth, or myth I picked up somewhere? Aleta Curry 03:34, 14 October 2010 (UTC)
- I've heard the Franklin thing, and even read his arguments, although I can't give you a reference. It's an honor to socialize with a wild one, but the domestic ones are incredibly stupid. Probably just as well for poultry. Howard C. Berkowitz 03:42, 14 October 2010 (UTC)
- I've got the reference right here and I'll add it. Hayford Peirce 21:08, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Moved to domestic turkey
On second thought, I've moved this section to the stub domestic turkey. I had started that without metadata deliberately, pending the conclusion of the great turkey debates. So, that can very easily be cut/moved/deleted/pasted somewhere else, whatever is finally decided. I'm not making any determinations what that should be, only that the factoids shouldn't be at roast turkey. Aleta Curry 20:51, 16 October 2010 (UTC)
