Spinning a "mucus net" off its paddle-like foot-wings to trap algae and other foods, the swimming snail species Limacina helicinia is no bigger than a bean. But the discovery that it and at least 234 other species inhabit both Arctic and Antarctic waters is big news to biologists.

That explanation was almost too easy.
Now if only these simple minded scientists can explain why Communists now inhabit both land masses on opposite oceans, maybe we can solve our DC dilemma.

Communism was tried here in the US of A in the 19th Century. The were based on a theological premise. give unto others yadda yadda and they failed. why 'cause we are smarter than that. Or were!
Oneida and Amana products are the only remaining products of thoses 19th century communes. They made good stuff but erred when it came to the perfectability of man. Our fore fathers knew this and Commies think otherwise. When we wise up we'll see Obama for what he is .. a dictator of the prolietariat!
