And speaking of YKTTW candidates, I found some fascinating things about using rabbits for pregnancy tests today, but only one more example of the phrase "The Rabbit Died". We're at eight examples there now...
I know Heinlein played with the trope in his novel Friday, but I've mislaid my copy so I can't check which animal the ship's doctor used to carry out the pregnancy test on Friday. I'm just certain that it wasn't a rabbit. Anybody have a copy of that book at hand that they can check?
