Did you know?

The Platypus is stranger than you think.

Platypuses have no nipples.  After the young hatch, the mother oozes milk from the pores all over her body.

The male platypus has a poison barb on the inside of its hind legs.  The purpose of this weapon is uncertain.

While often compared to the beaver, the platypus is only about 20 inches in length -- more comparable to the size of the muskrat.

The Platypus bill is actually just an elongated muzzle covered with much the same kind of tough skin found on a dog's nose.  This bill contains an electrically-sensitive organ that can detect the electrical signatures of the small aquatic animals it eats.

The Universe (History Channel)
« on: July 12, 2007, 05:27:59 PM »
Hey guys, I’m working with the History Channel for this show. It’s a documentary style series with 13 different episodes about different aspects of our universe as we know it. They run Tuesdays at 9pm, but they repeat them a bunch of times. There's already been episodes about Mars and the Sun, with possible Extra Terrestrials and the Most Dangerous Places episodes on the way.

This last episode about the sun was really good. Did you get a chance to check it out?

 The Universe : Life and Death of a Star  Airs on Tuesday August 07 09:00 PM

Ignited by the power of the atom, burning with light, heat and wrath, stars are anything but peaceful. They collide, devour each other, and explode in enormous supernovas--the biggest explosions in the Universe. Using cutting-edge computer graphics, never-before-seen satellite images, and interviews with the world's leading astronomers, take a front row seat to the most amazing light show in the cosmos.

August 8 (Wed) or 9 (Thu).

The Universe is on DVD, so I'll probably get the set.  8)
