Well, what i got from the symposium was just the opposite. What we call orbigyni, humerosa, peru flower, etc., even the scientist aren't sure what they are because of the vast variation in visible patterns within a species. I really feel that going to the symposium, makes me less sure an orbigyni is an orbigyni now.


As the great David Webber would say..

"they are all just 1 species, potamotrygon"

;)

I found out I don't even have histrix. It is an unamed species from Brazil.

Isn't it refered to as Potamotrygon sp. "C" and called Cururu by the locals?
 
Even thought you couldn't make it due the the baby, and I was bummed I couldn't have met ya miles, you did the right thing. Your wife will look back and remember how you ditched what you really wanted to do for her and the baby, even if it didn't happen during the symposium.
 
So much for making those fun theoretical threads.. they are just wish-wash. I was going to theorize a family tree and/or break down all the species into smaller family groups, just for fun and conversation.. but now its a lost cause and I feel like it would be words wasted.. I think I am just going to wait for the DVD.

are we talking years.. centuries?.. I hear Rosa is a bit slow ;)


PS.. Lineaus you suck

Baby Zane and dead grandma would have wanted me to go, though?


Okay well maybe that is just wishful thinking :D


and meeting me is no fun ask BigSpizz i am kindof a douche bag
 
yes Gurtulio said Rosa was very slow. I asked him if someone could describe the species if he was taking his sweet time, he said yeah. Maybe someone else down there will get on the ball.

could be? sound cool. cururu......cururu.....

oh yeah quit hybridizing your rays Dave.. your ruining the gene pool :nilly::nilly::banhim:

haha

oh and If I had an extra $900+ to blow, you would have one less hybrid.. so I could re-hybridize them.. :eek::eek::eek::banhim:

:ROFL:

just kidding
kind of

hey that wasn't my fault. I have no control over my males, they like to get it on. I am going to try my best to keep species pure.

you might want to write them a note, fold it up like a girl in jr. high, and drop it in the tank.. so your males know that they are ruining themselves.

LOL <- yes laughing at myself

All jokes aside.. I can't wait for that DVD :D
