1/19 - Attack of the Echizen Monsters: Japanese sing the jellyfish and bacteria blues

Its been three years sing we started singing about it -- "jellyfish and bacteria, that's what you get when the ocean is infer-e-yah." Now the Japanese are ready to join the chorus. And yet ... this article attributes their increase in jellyfish populations, not to over-fishing, but to global warming. How con-veeen-e-yant.

No, this is not another Photoshop job from Ty Carlisle -- they weigh up to 440 pounts

I like the "Culinary Solution" bit. I wonder what underwater species they *don't* eat...
