Actually defies logic? When I was little I had a 2 foot long novelty colouring pencil which did that too. Completely illogical. |

Re: Johan-swamp Stuff
Logic:
Assumption- all Alligators are not more than 15 feet.
IF this is an alligator, AND it is 19 feet, AND 19 is greater than 15, THEN...
the assumption is false.

Re: Johan-swamp Stuff
But the assumption is a very reasonable one. I think you've just proved that logic is false.
Aaaargh! *science collapses around llama*

Re: Johan-swamp Stuff
There used to be alligators or crocodiles in prehistoric times that got up to 40-45 feet long.
It would be nice if the Early Age had more prehistoric beasties running around. Especially ones that actually were around in the last, say, 60,000 years, since that's only 1/1000ths of the time since the dinosaurs were around, making it a lot more believable that such critters would have had a major effect on real world myths-aside from the occasional "dragon bone" that might pop up?

Some saber-toothed tigers and cave bears to eat the independant cavemen?

Crap, I thought the answer was 10:45 PM 
So, am I correct in assuming that 100 albino pirate hippos could beat out 100 albino ninja crocs? Or are we still debating this?

Everything was supersized back then because the oxygen levers were higher. Those big dragonflies with wingspans like an eagle, we could have them back if we'd just have lots more oxygen in the air. And don't forget that they're lethal now. |
