I'm coming to the conclusion more or less all life has intelligence.
Next time I salt a slug I might start sobbing but seriously all life seems to know how to hold its own the exception possibly being man which is a bit sad and a little alarming.

This is the true greatness of Homo sapiens - science (the Alpha) is but a small candle of flickering light in a world of overwhelming superstitious darkness (the Omega).

Couldn't begin to understand the majority of the scientific context in the article - but what I (hopefully) do understand, is that it appears that Megalodon grew to its massive size, because it targeted large prey, such as whales, giant turtles, etc?

All I know is, that if ever there was a film made about the Megalodon - you would definitely "need a bigger boat"! :cool:

The quest......
