Never dug beards until I dated a guy last year who had one, and well, even though we broke up...I still remember the awesomeness of his beard. I think his beard was what kept us together longer than we should have lasted. Big Grin
Relating back to the OT, I think that it's a most awesome finding, and how any creationists couldn't see the validity in these studies, is beyond me.

Michelle Bachmann is her husband's beard.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

My eyes don't want to read all the text, but that picture in the article is awesome. I just feel bad for the university having to be in Arizona...

Unless said XX can pull it off

SEX!!! In the fossil record that is. Not only is it quite astounding to preserve life as a fossil, it is mesmerizing to preserve an action like this. These 2 insects were literally caught during copulation and have been preserved mating. It is as close to observational biology as you can hope to get out of the rock record.

This liberal world is clearly going to hell in a handbasket when even the rocks are symbols of sex!

Isn't the real news that a scientist spent ten years of his life looking for this specifically? I can see all sorts of abuse potential here: the bumpin' uglies bug biologist, the fornicating(fucking ...) fossil finder, the paleo- porn purveyor, etc. Smile
