wait... "filed teeth"?

when i was lying in bed last night it occurred to me that in "An Outpost of Progress" by Joseph Conrad the displaced "workers" are described as having filed teeth. The main characters, which i only remember as K and C, where described as fearful, regressed, child men. So why weren't they afraid of people with pointy teeth?

other weird before i fall asleep thoughts:

- is proliferous a word? like something that proliferates a lot...

- what if i have been mixing up "then" and "than" my whole spelling career?

- i want to learn how to make salmon burgers.... i had a really good salmon burger at that one restaurant.... what is that place called?.... and carmel popcorn! i could make carmel popcorn for the food gatherers bake sale..... yeah.... i could put them in individual plastic bags....
