Stellar Death

they follow you because you are in power and sound smarter, its kind of like how those little gophers or groundhogs race off the edge of a cliff because they dont want to be left behind

Firstly, that's totally an unfair characterization.

Secondly, it's lemmings -- not gophers or groundhogs -- and you can prevent that by designating one of the lemmings as a blocker and then another as maybe a builder or digger.  Or if you have enough umbrellas you can hand them out and the lemmings can use them as parachutes.  Yeah.

Just an FYI:The Lemming suicide stuff is bogus.  It was staged by the film crew making the Disney Documentary.  Not important to the discussion, but like the toilet thing, and many other "Facts that everyone knows" untrue.
