Amother Gap Narrows |
From The Smithsonian, December 2007, page 16:
TELLING TIME
Once a year, corals in the Great Barrier Reef spawn all at once, triggered by
the full moon. How do they know it's time? Researchers from Australia and
elsewhere now say the coral is guided by a protein that's sensitive to the
moon's faint blue light; they call the protein "a precursor to eyes."
WOA (Wicked Old Atheist) #2278
If you can't be a dirty old man,
what is the point of being an old man?
Through a jaundiced eye darkly--rheum with a view.

They've also neatly demolished the cretinists' "eye" argument. What use
is a pre eye that can not see? Good for timing the annual spawning.
Rather high on the list of priorities for an organism.

Is there a section on the results of the 2:30 race at Newmarket on Dec

Howard, to lose.
He lost years ago, when he decided to support your
War-criminal-in-chief.
I note with some delight that he may well even lose his "safe" seat!
Next should be a war crimes tribunal, to try him over active
complicity in the commission of genocide.

Most monthly magazines are distributed before the official publication
month. For many of them, January issues will be out in a week or two.

Am I the only who considers that to be a stupid fiction that damages
credibility?
If a Science Journal (one that has a bent toward astronomy, no less)
cannot get the date correct, how should I trust the content?

arrive a week or so before the month they are labeled for.

I hadn't seen that until it was pointed out. I'm just so tired from all
the political campaigning. I could sleep for a couple of days.
