Discussion: Strange Mass Animal Deaths!

Or you know, you could read Ferret's post up there.

Thanks for sucking the fun out of it suckymcfunsuckers.

Buzz Killington, AWAY!

I did but I'll take the word of a UC Berkeley professor/scientist any day. No offense to Ferret.

Sorry.

It apparently eroded the breakwater which does happen, but that has no correlation whatsoever with over a billion fish dying. A lack of breakwater doesn't cause that many deaths.

Reading comprehension fail. That is NOT what the biologist proposed happened. Re-read the article, come back, and try again.

I'm not somehow abject to all scientist. Its just that the one biologist who did the analyzing of the Redondo situation gave an asinine reason. I live by a marina with breakwater, its been damaged severely before and we didn't have billions of fish die on our shores.

So obviously its some other reason. I would have preferred a "I don't know" honestly. Would have been more of an honest response anyway.

Did you even READ the article? The gull droppings were mentioned as a secondary, exacerbating factor, NOT the primary cause for the anoxia. In fact, the beginning of the article states that the fish THEMSELVES likely removed most (if not virtually ALL) of the oxygen in the water. Look, here it is:

Authorities with the California Department of Fish and Game, along with other ocean biologists at the scene, declared the mass death a natural event. The fish, they said, sucked every drop of oxygen from the water and couldn't breathe.

I love that you're speaking negatively of those sneaky, dishonest "government-funded biologists" on the basis that you yourself can't read.

Terrasic-Cretaceous anthropology.

...do you know what anthropology is?

Sorry.

It wasn't aimed at you, lol.

You made an account to specifically address that.

Hmm. Interesting.

Wow yeah I look like an ass when writing the anthropology comment. I'll agree to that. lol

Triassic-Cretaceous Anthropology is the study of the Flintstones.

 

[craigdbfan]

lol

I failed. I leave with my shame cap on.

I bid you all adieu

That and some comment on the moon. I know. I just can't help myself. Old habits and all.

It's like a sneeze. One I have to create an e-mail account and register for before actually doing it.

Oh, and I'm taking this awesome username with me.

Bye, everyone!
