That is good news.

Well, hey, alright! :slight_smile:

Say, as an aside: Do they ever call out above water? The reason I ask is that I read in the Guinness book that their calls can reach sound levels of up to 188 dB, which is just 4 dB shy of the lethal shockwave that occurs with 192 dB sound (quoting the GB). It would certainly be quite a hang if this were so.

That is good. :slight_smile: Now, when will they reach population levels where we can start hunting them again - at sustainable levels, of course.

Mmmmmmm- whale flesh.

I think we need to nip this in the bud before they get out of hand again.

What if they evolve legs? How would you like a blue whale walking down your street, stomping on your SUV? Hmm?

For Godโ€™s sake, think of the children.

jjimm Letโ€™s go get us a couple, before theyโ€™re all gone!

Yay!! So how long 'til we can get whale sushi? (Just kidding!)

Dammit.

Now weโ€™re gonna need bigger tuna netsโ€ฆ

OK, just finished getting a kennel. (NASA had a remaindered-stock auction on Saturn-V hangars).

Shouldnโ€™t that be a transparent-aluminum tank?

โ€œCaptain, there be whales here!โ€

Save the Whales - Collect the Whole Set.
But this is good news! Go Whales!
