Default 70 Year Old Whale Oil

From the latest issue of Science News:

Scientist have tested 70 year old whale oil from the Charles W. Morgan of
Mystic, CT.

They found PCB's and similar chemicals.

What is striking is that they concluded these chemicals are naturally
occuring since man did not yet begin producing them 70 years ago.

Once again, man is not the culprit!

In the same issue:

It appears that Global Warming is occuring on Mars. Evidence of rapid
climate fluctuations have been observed by the Mars Reconaissance Orbiter
(MRO) satellite.

Scientists claim man is not responsible for the warming on Mars and they are
using the data to correlate climate change on the earth.

The sun, cosmic rays and space environment is what the Earth and Mars share
in common.

Environmentalists counter that man produced greenhouse gases are escaping
the earth and surrounding Mars. They also claim that some of the greenhouse
gases in their transit toward Mars entered wormholes, traveled back in time
and caused the global warming seen on earth millions of years in the past
before man even existed.

Might have been a bug spraying effort aboard the ship in the 70's that
fouled the oil with PCB's

NASA just launched 2 satellites to watch solar flares in stereo
vision.

Did Gore tell you that?

Was that the Art Bell Science journal?

Sealed vials!

Did not rule out possibility of wormholes aboard the Charles W. Morgan,
though.

I guess the bug spraying would have prevented the wormholes.

I think it's from one of Gilly's comic books. Do you know he has X-Ray
glasses that really work? And a whole colony of sea monkeys?

That's odd. I read the same article and it said that PCB's, as made
by Monsanto, were not found. There were trace amounts of HOC's
(halogenated organic compounds) but not PCB's or DDT. The original
work on naturally occurring HOC's was actually published in February,
this is confirming follow up based on the Charles W. Morgan oil.

It is not known yet if the chemical found are toxic.

No! Not another time anomaly!

Thanks for the correction. Do you get Science News?

They found substances "similar" to PCB's and others. The
concentrations present were extremely low, and could have even come
from the lab that did the testing.

It really doesn't mean much by itself. Even synthesized compounds come
from ingredients found in nature. Where else would you get them?

Since you seem to have your hot tub chemistry down pat, I'll take your word
on this.

Yes, but I often don't find the time to read it, so we're thinking of
dropping it.
