I also suggest that Jar, in general, be much more selective in his starting of new topics. I've had thoughts that his new topics permissions should be suspended.
I don't doubt that in the least. We certainly don't need threads like Oetzi or the Grand Canyon or Salt Domes or How to make Sand or How to support Creationism or Coffee Memories or So let's look at why the Islamic world might be annoyed by the West? or Looking for the Super-Genome. -And it ain't found or The world and environment 5767 years ago.
Let's restrict topics to discussions of cats or the latest news from KKRAP. It is certainly unreasonable to expect the membership at EvC to be able to understand irony or recognize parody or to check sources. God forfend we see threads that encourage thinking or questioning.

Associated Scientific Press 11-05-06 16:42 Patagonia, Argentina: Historia Compuesta
It's been reported that scientists working on the newly discovered species of snake, Najash rionegrina, used an MRI on the remains. Early indications show a completely developed larynx of surprising sophistication, far more mammalian than any seen in any serpents.
Dr Jesus Me'Deocre Falsificado said, off the record, that the one thing that was most surprising was that it was almost as though the mucosa had been removed. "Without the mucosa the creature would have been unable to utter even a sound. However, we are planning additional MRI and Cat Scans and there may be indications of a vestigial mucosa."
The findings will be published in a future edition of Historia Compuesta.
