It's a bit strange that people assumed that whales wouldn't suffer from the bends just because they've lived in the ocean for thousands of years. After all, humans have lived on the earth for thousands of years and we still can't cope with a lot of things. Sometimes we are so arrogant :/
Well, we just don't want to be bothered, do we? That's why dog ownership has fallen off so much in recent years, because it involves clear responsibility, and it's easier for people to pretend cats don't need any proper looking after. Grmph mphm. Just wait till Cthulhu gets woken up by some sonar, pops out of the sea in a really bad mood and eats a few submarines - then they'll be sorry.
I didn't realise dog ownership had fallen dramatically. You'd think that in these times of the 'interior self', with more people living alone and only communicating with others via the net or whatever, then there'd be more people interested in having a pet as a companion

Oh, it did cross my mind that it might be Tarkan - I remember asking you about the smouldering/rain ikon because he looked particularly captivating in it :)
I'm now wondering who'd come off worse in a fight between those tentactle-toting titans [note the small 't' :)]. Maybe they'd just team up with Godzilla, and a gang of pissed-off cetaceans, and go on a big eating/wrecking spree.
Maybe lots of people are just too insular now to want to relate to any furry thing if they live alone. I don't know. I'd love to have a dog/dogs but I couldn't leave them alone all day. But it's so sad to think of all those creatures ready to give cuddles and furriness that are just abandoned or ignored :(
Right, well, I guess I'd better bugger off. Off to Mum's and NO INTERNET. But will hopefully get a bit written if I can manage to take myself off somewhere quiet.
