Associated Press: Rare destructive beetle intercepted at LA port.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection said in a statement Friday that agriculture specialists at the Los Angeles-Long Beach port complex intercepted the live adult beetle in a shipment of pineapple from Costa Rica, and immediately began working to return it.
The insect — strongylaspis corticarius Ancita — is a cousin of the Asian long-horned beetle.
Q: How many Longhorn Beetle species are there?
ReplyDeleteA: About 20,000. Maybe more. New bugs are discovered every day.
Q: What range do these beetles cover?
A: The whole planet.
Q: So Oils is just saying that Evolution is True to make his point that Plate Tectonics is a lie?
A: Yep. Evolution seems to back him up on this one, so he co-opts it briefly. Later, when he needs a bullshit hypothesis about early man, he'll tell you evolution isn't true, because it suits him to say such a thing. Just like when he quoted Cremo (a Vedic Creationist) pretending to know thing one about feet.
Q: Kinda disingenious, ain't it?
A: Yep.
So you think the beetles in Costa Rica magically rafted across the imaginary Panthalassic Ocean?
ReplyDeleteNope.
ReplyDeleteNo such thing as magic. Quit repeating yourself.
Jeffery, or Geoffrey, seems addicted to fantasy!

It's Jeffery, Fungus.
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah...I started a blog a long time ago for gaming. Big deal. Oils knows I'm a gamer, hell, I honeymooned at Gen Con!
But I know reality when I see it, and Oil's Expanding Earth had its moment a long time ago. It was overthrown on the weight of evidence, observation and study.
It is fantasy to want to resurrect old, dead material like EE, EU and to deny evolution.
He just does it to be contrary. He wants to stand out, be different. If (and its a big if) any of his psuedoscience is ever proven, he'll feel vindicated and powerful. Right now, he enjoys playing the victim by getting banned from every science forum on the internet.
The chance of your time vacation was raised ten many years ago when researchers found superluminal -- or faster-than-light -- propagation of optical pulses in some particular medium
