Well, not exactly, but now all the Trekkie folk are reading this too. Leonard Nimoy made a rather easy shift from Star Trek to Unsolved Mysteries and began calmly and logicly explaining the unexplainable to the commoners. Ghosts, apparitions, UFOs, and other unexplained thingies got the whatfor treatment and then, with seconds left in the broadcast, there was the seed of doubt. The "absence of proof isn't proof of absence" garbage that some tof the more logical hold near and dear. The National Geographic channel now seems to carry this show, and this morning they explained away the chupacabra, dismissing another new species to the dust bin. The Malaysian government recently announced that there have been no applications for their famous yeti hunt. It almost seems that lore and legends are being CSI'ed out of existance. I do offer however a ray of hope in this otherwise sterile future. A new species of fuzzy lobster was recently discovered, captured, and analyzed for posterity. So it is possible that absent proof of absence, there are unknowns in the world. There are things left undiscovered, unknown, and it is our sworn duty to hunt them down and kill them. That would make James T a happy man. Oh yeah, the question is, "What unproven thingie do you think is possible, or likely, and why?" -------------------- quote: Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

Is it such a terrible thing to relegate lore and legends to status as just that rather than plausible reality? There are enough real fuzzy lobsters and coelacanths without searching for the Loch Ness Monster and the drop bear. —Alorael, who met a ghost who explained to him how UFOs aren't real and how JFK really was killed by a lone gunman. Sadly, before the ghost could explain away cryptozoology and paranormal events it was dispersed by a telepathic member of the Illuminati. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

If there are fuzzy lobsters then fluffy turtles exist! I would also like to see someone to capture a battle between a giant squid and a sperm whale on tape. Dikiyoba. Posts: 4346 | Registered: Friday, December 23 2005 08:00 |

James T was a solipsistic egomaniac. Do you have pictures of these so-called "fuzzy lobsters"? -------------------- Slarty vs. Desk • Desk vs. Slarty • Timeline of Ermarian • G4 Strategy Central Posts: 3560 | Registered: Wednesday, November 7 2001 08:00 |

Huh. And I had actually thought the furry lobsters were an April Fools joke. Not April? I'm sure it's April somewhere in the world right now. -------------------- quote: Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

The polynesians had a goddess of crustaceans? "Hi baby, I'm the God of War. What do you do?" "I'm um, the Goddess of Crabs." "Oh... wow. Do you find that, like, fufilling?" "It's just a temporary thing until my big break." -------------------- SupaNik: Aran, you're not big enough to threaten Ash. Dammit, even JV had to think twice.
