MigL, respectfully, that's not the point. Just because a praying mantis wouldn't want the same type of treats you might give, say, a cat, doesn't mean that they wouldn't saddle up to us more if we used their currency.

I think MigL has confused the word "sarcastic" with the word "wrong".

Partly right. Electrons can jump around a little bit from their "slots". The transition elements are full of examples where electrons will jump over to another orbital or even energy level.
