Smackie the Frog is the invention of comedian Mitch Hedberg. He claimed that Smackie is the English equivalent of Smokey the Bear. I have found no evidence to show that Smackie the Frog actually was a public service spokesman for fire prevention.
The joke is track 18 of Mr Hedberg's CD, "Strategic Grill Locations."

What does the boiled frog syndrome mean?
If you drop a frog into hot water, it will immediately jump out. If you put a frog in cool water and heat it, it will stay and die because it does not feel the sudden heat.

For further explanation:
Let's do an experiment. A scientist, who will now be christened Fred, has two beakers, beaker A and beaker B. Fred places the beakers onto two identical heaters, and places two identical frogs, frog A and frog B, into their respective beakers.
In beaker A, Fred turns the heater onto its maximum setting. Frog A, sensing the immediate increase in heat, leaps out of the beaker shortly after the heater is turned on.
In beaker B, Fred turns the heater on, not to its maximum setting, but to a low setting so the water is heated gradually. The frog, quite comfortable with the gradual increase in heat, notices nothing unusual. Eventually, the water starts boiling and, poor frog B is boiled to death despite having the complete ability to jump out.

This phenomenon is very real (don't try this at home), and is often used as an analogy to human beings and global warming/just about any gradual problem. The human race is a frog, and, supposedly, gradual changes will eventually boil us to death because we will not take action against something that we do not really notice.
For example, if, over a period of 30 years, say 1980 through now, the government repeals laws meant to prevent monopolies, and monopolies do in fact grow, and fewer and fewer companies and CEOs gradually get more and more power over what we can hear and watch, we don't notice it so we let them control our minds.
Hope that helps!

Can betta fish and fresh water albino clawed frogs live in the same tank?
First of all, how big is the tank? I recommend at least a 10 gallon if you want to house these two fish together. anything smaller, you can forget about the frog already. It should work just until the frog grows to about the same size as the betta. Or even an inch smaller. Clawed frogs are opportunists and will Try to get the betta any chance it gets. You can still try but you will need a backup plan just in case things dont work out. I've tried it and it worked until the frog grew bigger. I wouldnt recommend it if you do not have another cycled tank to put your betta fish in. Well good luck to you and your pets :)
