------------- Quote from Trader666: Are you so blind to your own hypocrisy that you can't see it even after it's been pointed out to you? You just brought up Christians so let's use them as an example. Libturds routinely insult Christians. Yet when Christians insult them back, libturds invariably hide behind "you're supposed to turn the other cheek." Why do you think it's OK to insult someone (or their God or religion) who you think is supposed to just take it? No decent libturd would do that. But then again "decent libturd" is an oxymoron... ------------- I'm too sleepy to respond anymore to the liberturds this evening. Their non-sense is all yours for the bashing tonight, Trader666.
Lightning kills football team All 11 members of a football team were killed by a bolt of lightning which left the other team unhurt, a Congolese newspaper has reported. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/203137.stm
============================= Mr Trefoil trender; Humility can be tricky; some tend to brag about thier humility..... I see your point and agree with much of it; University of Kentucky just had to pay Mr Martin [Christian Astronomy prof]$125,000 for discriminating against him....... cbnnews. Thats one of the reasons , i seldom show up at most colleges................................................
==================== PSpr; Wildlife management is an interest of mine, but its more complex than it first seems........................................................ Classic cases, Chinese ringneck pheasant[import from China,LOL]; they have done very very well in the north USA, but not so much in the south. And now, i learned something tht has nothing to do with temperature, or global warm scam. Pheasant Company that has sold over 20 million birds noted that pheasants do not drink water with * parts per MILLION chlorine, noting you may want to have your water tested....... Don't remember the exact number but its single didgets per million. Did notice my pet birds[rare chickens] will drink city water but need more of it than creek water........................... And a related note, young chickens, & young wild turkeys are very vulnerable to a cold wet spring, a huge %% killer....................... Bat decline, dont have a clue -YET
Thanks, Murray, but I don't think wild Pheasants drink tap water. They don't have any fingers to turn the tap. I doubt the birds that fell out of the air suddenly drank a bunch of tap water either. Good luck with your chickens, though.
I think poisonous gases killed Dinosuars. Volcanic Eruptions, Not Meteor, May Have Killed The Dinosaurs A series of monumental volcanic eruptions in India may have killed the dinosaurs 65 million years ago, not a meteor impact in the Gulf of Mexico. The eruptions, which created the gigantic Deccan Traps lava beds of India, are now the prime suspect in the most famous and persistent paleontological murder mystery, say scientists who have conducted a slew of new investigations honing down eruption timing. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007/10/071029134743.htm
SAN FRANCISCO â Huge volcanic eruptions that belched sulfur into the air for around 10,000 years could have killed the dinosaurs, according to new evidence unearthed by geologists. Evidence is accumulating that it wasnât an asteroid that did the beasts in, but volcanoes â the first real challenge the extinction theory has met in three decades. A combination of studies on dinosaur fossils, magnetic signatures in rocks and the timing of the disappearance of different species suggest it was volcanoes, not an asteroid, that caused the dinosaursâ extinction. http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2008/12/deccantraps/#
Scientists determined it's likely that unusually loud noises reported before the birds began falling frightened them so much that they flew off in the dark, even though they have poor night vision and typically do not fly at night. The Fish and Game Commission also said New Year's Eve fireworks likely led the birds to fly at a lower-than-normal altitude and into buildings or trees. It's estimated that 4,000 to 5,000 birds fell before midnight.
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/41283576/ns/technology_and_science-science/?gt1=43001 "Windwood residents first observed the birds flying at roof top level and flying into structures and objects around 10:30 p.m. Beginning at about 11:30 p.m., AGFC wildlife officers received reports of blackbirds falling from the sky in and around the Windwood neighborhood. It's estimated that 4,000 to 5,000 birds fell before midnight. It appears unusually loud noises, reported shortly before the birds began to fall, caused the birds to flush from the large roost. Additional New Year's Eve fireworks in the area may have forced the birds to fly at a lower altitude than normal. Blackbirds have poor night vision and typically do not fly at night." The Lord works in mysterious ways. Let's hope mankind does not ignore this obvious warning
