They’re card sharks, obviously! ;)

I remember enjoying watching “The Strange Monster of Strawberry Cove”, 1971.

I remember seeing that, and having a terrible nightmare about the Strange Monster of Strawberry Shortcake. Changed my whole outlook on desserts.

Wright says he'll collect water samples in search of DNA.

Now being developed into a way to trace deep sea fisheries:

https://framsenteret.no/forum/2020/e-dna-using-dna-in-sea-water-to-trace-species/

One such tool which has undergone explosive development over the past few years is the analysis of environmental DNA (eDNA). Advances in genetics and genomics, which include a variety of technologies and tools, are now providing us with the ability to increase knowledge about existing data collections, fill data gaps in existing methodology, and in some cases possibly replace current methods in a cost-effective and sustainable way.

eDNA methodology has already shown significant potential for cost-effective mapping and monitoring of the composition of species communities, pathogens and harmful algae blooms, and the effects of aquaculture of shellfish on biodiversity, and is now also being used to determine population structure and species/population identification of marine mammals.

Haggis the Scots haven't been any more successful about finding theirs.

LOL! It doesn't take much to fool 'em. Hey, it's okay to hit my my own ancestors.

Whom.

Sorry, one of the few English rules (whom, him, her as objects of sentence) that is consistent and, yet, no native English speaker follows it.

You all drive me crazy.
