I remember a huge wall near my first primary school. It was too high  
to climb. Strangely when I returned 40 years later it had shrunk to a  
height I could sit on. The huge grasshoppers and cicadas I used to  
catch as a boy seem to have gone extinct. Only small species are  
left. Perhaps they have evolved to a smaller size.
