SO ENDS this first of two weekends on the subject of pheromones. Universal, complex, and very diverse, these molecules operate in addition to other modes of communication, layered on top as a primary, perhaps more primitive, sense.

And probably not far disconnected from the molecules of quorum sensing used by bacteria.
