Wow, maybe they can negotiate a million dollar grant to study it!  The 
California, Mantis Shrimp Running on a Treadmill, project brought in some 
serious research coinage.

 Sounds too much like an actual university PR person, who has
 written one too many press release, without taking a vaction.  :-) :-)

2015-08-12 Thread Raremeteorites via Meteorite-list
I wasn't even thinking about it being a satire website.  It sounds like what 
you now hear or read in the news or watch on one of these reality shows on a 
daily basis.  Expectations are so low these days that it did not phase me a 
bit that a recently degreed geologist actually gained some press by finding 
a fully intact rock.  At least the geologist broke away from social media 
and texting long enough to get into the field and actually observe 
something.
