Do you think caterpillers know that they're going to turn into butterflies? Or do they just wake up one morning and wonder what the hell is going on, sitting in their little cocoons feeling a little frightened and most uncomfortable till they break out and discover that they are altogether changed? I wonder if they prefer being butterflies; maybe given the chance they'd go right back to being little green fuzzy inchworms that crawl around eating all day.

I wish I could ask one.
