    The thing is that one death is much the same as another to the corpse. How nasty it looks doesn't mean a thing.

    Oh and Paradigm, you need to take those pictures off. It is good to take the good with the bad but you don't need to force it on anybody. Providing links with warnings attached would be a more reasonable thing to do.

    There was a programme on Discovery Channel (it showed a few months ago in NZ). It was called 'When the Oceans Boiled'. It referred to an incident about 55 million years ago when the world's methane deposits came up out of solution, and raised the temperature of the atmosphere by about 8 degrees C in about 50 years.

    I'm a bit dubious that they could get that narrow a focus that deep in time, but I spose they have their ways of doing it. Anyway, the programme people said it could happen again, beginning in about 2050. I'll look it up on the net and see if I can find a link for you to scope at.

    Sorry


    Why, those pics is what is going on today, for real. FOR REAL.

    Someone requested them, so I posted them. Whats the big deal?

    So we should all not look at the pics, post warnings, the people who found these dead people on the beach did not get warnings..

    thats the problem with america, we hide from everything we don't like or don't want to see. - if that was one of your family members - you would have to look at, or look through 100's of these pics just to ID your dead family member, we are all way too sheltered from what is really going on in the world today.

    I would think after a big f**koff tsunami hit the beach they wouldn't be expecting sandcastles.

    ...and thats why its called a tragedy. It's generally considered something to be avoided. Just because shit happens, doesn't mean I want you dropping a turd on my loungeroom floor.

    Is it a bad thing to shelter a 10 year old who might be reading this thread?

    We need to not hide ourselves from reality. Death is not pretty, people do not ride off into the sunset, and those people are *dead*.

    Just like you will be one day.

    This a forum for science. Death is evidence of a state of being. Do not be afraid of that which you cannot hope to avoid.


    edit:
    I do not feel bad for those who have died, as for those who dug graves in the hard sand with their bare hands, the day after.

    i dont care if i die 1 day, as long as I feel Iv lived all I can 1st.

    Perhaps death can be pretty though... esp. if life has got so ugly that your glad to end it. heroic deaths and deaths for love can be nice, noble, bitter-sweet.. (ah, sighin like Juliet!)

    Only when you are not holding the heroic dead's rotting corpse. Distance makes the heart grow fonder; and the dead more noble.

    Artistic? Perhaps - not all art can please all people, however. I agree with ScRaMbLe about the suitability of those images.

    Texas, our president's home state is the largest polluter of uncounted tons methane gas into the atmosphere. Texas, as you probably know has the largest number of cattle of any state in the union.

    Avatar, You must read "Cataclysm": Compelling Evidence of a Cosmic Catastrophe in 9500 B. C. by D. S. Allan, J. B. Delair (Paperback)

    The authors are Oxford scholars and the book is professionally documented and convincing. Ice Age? I don't think so.
