Hey PZ, I read the following in Olivia Judson’s NYTimes piece* today and immediately thought of you . . .
“Lest anyone doubt that squid sometimes fly, see Maciá, S., Robinson, M. P., Craze, P., Dalton, R., and Thomas, J. D. 2004. “New observations on jet propulsion (flight) in squid, with a review of previous reports.” Journal of Molluscan Studies 70: 297-299.”
* On the possibility of bacteria not just living in clouds, but also influencing cloud formation and even atmospheric composition, etc.

So, open thread? Here’s a nice little news story for you. DALLAS, Feb. 21 (UPI) — The Secret Service told Dallas police to stop screening for weapons while people were still arriving at a campaign rally for Barack Obama
Nice. Dallas ring a bell anyone? Something about back and to the left…?
Of course, timing is good because it could also be blamed on Hillary. Wow.
