Hi Terry,

Sorry I didn’t get back to you sooner. I’ve been ignoring this Web site since Cowboy Doug found that jerky dolphin. He probably just Googled Imaged piranhas, keyword.

Hi Karen,

I think the pink dolphin is cute – and how in the world did Doug find out that was a fresh water dolphin? He is such a landlubber cowboy ha ha ha…

weirsdo: I suppose there could be one less of you.

C. J. You already are a blow hole.

Nessa: Hello, welcome to Marine World. We have cute, ugly and jerky fish here

Cute always wins out over almost anything. perhaps an “Ugly Fish” campaign can be started whereby ugly yet endangered species get make overs like on reality tv shows. This could be a new avenue for fund raising and then jerky dolphins would get less attention and we can slaughter them at will (although will might object having slaughter this thrown at him – but who really knows.)

Less people and more Dolphins?
Maybe.
How about we all go Dolphin and grow fins.
Having said that, I wouldn’t like a blow hole.

Hello David! I’m not sure how the UH Oceanography Dept. will feel about your objection to the existence of dolphins. But I do think Marine Land and Sea World will disagree.

Thank you very much, weirsdo. I’m glad you found reading Dolphins are actually jerks? interesting.

But why would you volunteer to be fewer? How many less of you can there be?

That was an interesting article.
Again, it always seems to me that the only truly effective solution would be fewer people, and I’m not volunteering. . . .

River dolphins are not jerks.

If dolphins are smart enough to think I’m a jerk, I retract my objection to their existence. However, despite what a disturbing number of people falsely believe, dolphins are not that intelligent.

Like most marine biologists, I am annoyed that dolphins, which aren’t endangered but are cute, are conserved at the expense of endangered but less cute animals.
