Talk:Fish
And Admiral Rickover observed...
When he changed the long-standing U.S. Navy convention of naming submarines, from sea creatures to politicians and places, ADM Rickover observed "Fish don't vote."
So why do they go to school? :-) Howard C. Berkowitz 01:28, 6 September 2009 (UTC)
- Its not that they don't want to vote. It's just that most of them have extremely short memories and just forget to actually go out and do it. ;) Drew R. Smith 08:48, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
- And how does that make them differ from a number of two-legged members of the electorate? :-), Howard C. Berkowitz 16:42, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
- You've got me there. But one thing fish do have over us humans - I've never heard of an archer fish (I'll write the article soon, dont worry ;-) shooting another archer fish in the face. Drew R. Smith 07:59, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
(undent) I do know about the Archerfish (fish). The Archerfish (submarine) was responsible for the largest single-ship sinking in WWII.
While I recognize they aren't true fish, I'm in a community besieged by five Great White Sharks. CNN has better coverage than we can see. There's an interesting ecological aspect, according to the commercial fishermen -- the sharks were attracted to the seals, which were devastating the early life cycles of some fisheries. So, the view now is true sharks may be OK, but they still draw the line at lawyers.Howard C. Berkowitz 16:42, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
