Mr. Zimmer,
I have in fact never caught a butterfly with a tennis racket, and
should
have said that the two instruments are, shall I say, morphologically
cognate? I _have_ however, caught a very large, angry, and fluttery
_bat_ in
my kitchen, with my tennis racket, in the middle of a stormy night, long
ago. The bat did not survive, I'm afraid.
