What happened to the freshwater fish when Noah's flood covered the earth?

I love how factually correct many scientists want everything to be and how much they seem to enjoy picking holes in things.

Example and Spectre spoiler contained herein...

This reminds me of the goofs section on IMDB and the bizarre mistakes people spot. My favourite is this, from The Polar Express:

When the train runs into the caribou, the noise they are making is actually that of elk.

Who are these people who actually know that and bother to tell the world about?

:lol:

Its like all the mistakes on 'greatest movie mistakes' or whatever, you sit there half the time thinking "how on earth did someone spot that continuation error where a glass was full ten minutes earlier but now isn't".

I have no idea tbf and wondered the same...relies on just as much cutting skill as going through the middle 6 times tbh. Maybe its cos going through the middle 6 times is difficult as you have to work in 1/6ths all the time, as opposed to a pizza cut in 4, 8 or 16 where you can always cut in halves. But then that poses the question of why a pizza cut into 12 is needed. I may write a paper on this actually, 'the preferential number of slices a pizza should be cut into'.

My wife has MS and although we won't be getting our hopes up yet, it is a pretty big breakthrough. As with all these things, some treatments work for some and not for others and it could be a decade before things are widely available. Watch this space I suppose.

Thoughts?


I think many people in the UK have an amount of knee jerk reaction against things like this but once the benefits are explained most seem for it. Could just be my sheltered view of it though.

I think far from being a risk it will eventually become a necessity. If you bypass natural selection somewhat with modern medicine then eventually that build up of genes that would otherwise have been selected against is going to catch up with you. It's either this or eugenics, which I don't see catching on.
