Looks like you’d eat it as you would eat Shrimp. I can live with that. ;)

Reminds me of my first face-to-face date on Match. Her picture looked way different.

“About the size of a human index finger, Mosura had three eyes, sharp spiny claws, a circular mouth ringed with teeth, and rows of flaps along its sides that likely helped it swim.”

The headline made me think we were talking about Mothra.

I see what youre getting at but that was still really funny!

Global warming? Alien mind control? Better toasted or not toasted?

A PCR “test” will show us the way...

...to more taxes.

Ya, and I expected proportionately much larger “wings”.

Overall it seems researchers arent very good at naming things. Everything should get a temporary name until the interested part of society has chimed in so that we can vote on names that meet appropriate naming conventions.

This is one of those areas where there just isnt enough “outreach” and “spurring public interest” in science. There would certainly be a lot more in the way of humorous and memorable names instead of those boring ones based on dead researchers.

Option "n" gives a tilde "˜" then "n" gives an "n" with a tilde over it "ñ"...
