Well, I certainly don’t know anything about the ‘games’ some of you play, here. I’m just having trouble dissecting your post.

What on Earth does ‘not giving a !!!!’ about possibly extant species have to do with PETA?

Do you ever think critically, and outside of your knee-jerk politics and antipathy to certain social movements? Sometimes ‘a cigar is just a cigar’, and doesn’t relate to any political or social ideology.

It is quite possible that some species that we have believed were extinct, still exist.

I think that’s kind of interesting. It not only points to some of the possible failures of understanding on the part of the Great God Science; but to the resilience of life on Earth; and to how much we still don’t understand.

Nothing personal, but the mental picture of Dustin Hoffman sitting at the keyboard is a bit unnerving.......

Only if the researcher receives the proper amount of funding.

The Blue Bee is Darwinian science as reality.

Hive got to believe that Josh K. Elliot's waited his whole career for this one. Insect researchers are buzzing in Florida this week...

The researchers probably had to comb the forest.
I'm glad they didn't experience the sting of failure.
Okay, I'll stop now.

All industry in Florida must be shut down now!

And BLM must take full possession of the state of Florida for this precious endangered species’ sake!
