They become angels, and bring sweet dreams to all the other animals of the sea.

I always thought it was the other way around...

I went to an awesome presentation at my old college that was all about the deep oceans last year, and I remember just how cool it was when the professor spoke about an experiment they did, dropping the carcass of a dead (dolphin? seal? I don't quite remember) to an extremely deep part of the ocean.

The full carcass was there for hardly a week before the thing was picked clean, down to the bone, by all the bottom dwellers that rushed it as soon as it hit bottom.

Very cool. The mafia seems to have known about the advantages to making someone "sleep with the fishes".

/we need to get a full, detailed map of the ocean bottom, already!

I guess that's the same Flora Lichtman from Science Friday Video Pick of the Week?

How many "Flora Lichtman science video editors" can there possibly be among us 7 billion souls?

But nobody cries at the funeral because they have banned wailing.

Except at Japanese and Norwegian funeral homes, of course.

The special effects are terrible. You can totally see the strings.

That was very cool, and quite a departure for IHC. Sent it to a friend with a 10 year old but recommended they not go poking around on the website, unless they were looking for anatomy lessons too.

But was there any comment from the bowl of petunias?


/obligatory, even if underwater.

that would be a dead whale that was being transported somewhere for some reason, probably to a rendering plant, I forget exactly.
Well, the whale was quite ripe when the truck hit that pot hole, and its soft underbelly kinda... erupted, sending a wave of whale guts flooding the mid day streets.

I'm sure the stench was... exquisite.
