Oh good. Glad to be set straight on this.

My only experience with mules was meeting the 5 over the fence at a  
neighbors place who were retired from the C & O canal near Washington  
DC.  They had retired from service with the National Park Service, and  
apparently came with a federal pension: $1 a year.  I think they were  
fairly un mule-like - quite interested to see people and friendly.
