"
But
it
’
s
absurd
.
Plants
talking
!
"
"
So
much
more
absurd
than
plants
walking
?
"
he
asked
.
I
stared
at
them
,
and
then
back
at
him
.
"
I
never
thought
—
"
I
began
doubtfully
.
"
You
try
thinking
of
it
a
bit
,
and
watching
them
.
I
’
d
be
interested
to
hear
your
conclusions
,
"
he
said
.
It
was
a
curious
thing
that
in
all
my
dealings
with
triffids
such
a
possibility
had
never
occurred
to
me
.
Pd
been
prejudiced
,
I
suppose
.
by
the
love
-
call
theory
.
But
once
he
had
put
the
idea
into
my
mind
,
it
stuck
.
I
couldn
’
t
get
away
from
the
feeling
that
they
might
indeed
be
rattling
out
secret
messages
to
one
another
.
Up
to
then
I
’
d
fancied
I
’
d
watched
triffids
pretty
closely
,
but
when
Walter
was
talking
about
them
I
felt
that
Ed
noticed
practically
nothing
.
He
could
,
when
he
was
in
the
mood
,
talk
on
about
them
for
hours
,
advancing
theories
that
were
sometimes
wild
but
sometimes
not
impossible
.
The
public
had
by
this
time
grown
out
of
thinking
triffids
freakish
.
They
were
clumsily
amusing
,
but
not
greatly
interesting
.
The
company
found
them
interesting
,
however
,
It
took
the
view
that
their
existence
was
a
piece
of
benevolence
for
everyone
particularly
for
itself
.
Walter
shared
neither
view
.
At
times
,
listening
to
him
,
I
began
to
have
some
misgivings
myself
.
He
bad
become
quite
certain
that
they
"
talked
,
"
"
And
that
,
"
he
argued
,
"
means
that
somewhere
in
them
is
intelligence
.
It
can
’
t
be
seated
in
a
brain
,
because
dissection
shows
nothing
like
a
brain
—
but
that
doesn
’
t
prove
there
isn
’
t
something
there
that
does
a
brain
’
s
job
.
