Physorg notes that there is research going on about how mice sing (ultrasonically):
Whether or not mouse song involves learning either through auditory imitation or behavioral feedback (e.g., from the mother)... is a subject of hot debate, and the answer is proving elusive. To highlight the difficulties facing researchers, two studies published on March 9, 2011 in the open-access journal PLoS ONE have come to differing conclusions about whether mouse vocalization patterns are innate or learned.
Rodents sing
and they
laugh. Sound like good company, really.

Shuttle Discovery was retired today. I expect you to blog about this on OD with a detailed history
Nothing to do with the topic on mice, but how else do I get your attention.
