hallelulah praise the possum and his bumblebee disciples I have found the answer to the question I never intended to ask!
hallelulah! Salute the Suess! And so it was said that there was a cat and he did don a hat of far larger vertical proportions then his own cranium, and it didst look awkward, but he did then say to the goldfish, "how is thou sentient? And How dost thou breath of the oxygen in this air with ichthyological breathing apparatus?" To which the goldfish did reply, "because the Suess made be that way" Praise'd be the possum and his disciples! Drinketh of the holy lemonade and be merry, Suess Bless us all!
