But there isn't a drilling station over the Mariana Trench, however it looks to me that every station is above a plate boundary. Smile

EDIT:Unless there is and I just missed it on the map.


Is in the Mariana Trench, Not sure what that has to do with tempurature though.... Smile

In opposition to others on here who have stated that the label on the
"evidence" can't be an official label, I think that it may very well be.

"Primary Evidence"

"Freeze Immediately"

Then, handwritten on the label, "Jamie, don't eat this!"

A company would label something as evidence if they had indeed "found" something as Teddy stated. What is it? IDK.

Also, the fact that he had to warn her not to eat it means that it's not only edible, but pleasingly edible; perhaps it has an inviting aroma.

On a different note:

Chuai Station isn't even a drilling station, but rather, their first attempt at harvesting DSN straight from the source: a fully-grown, fertile Grumpypants. Genetically altered to produce shittons of DSN, the monster is the real reason Chaui's EURR is "in development"?

And Momma Grumpypants wants her babies back!


Gorgo? Cool

Reverse psychology? Ha, otherwise it just seems stupid to put that.

Mariana Trench splained Lucy - The deepest part of the ocean is called the abyssal zone. it is host to thousands of species of invertebrates and fish including such oddities as the Angler Fish , so called because it uses a bioluminescent (life light) protrusion to attract its prey. The Challenger Deep in the Mariana Trench is very cold, and highly pressurized; its floor features hydrothermal (hot water ) vents formed by spreading tectonic plates which release hydrogen sulfide and
other minerals which are consumed by the barophilic bacteria which are then consumed by other microorganisms, which are in turn, consumed by the fish, and so on. The temperature around the vents can reach up to 300° Celsius (572° Fahrenheit). The venting fluid is highly acidic, while the water from the deep ocean is slightly basic. Although the venting fluid is prevented from boiling due to its dissipation into the surrounding freezing water, creatures from the deep show an incredible resistance to temperature extremes by having different proteins which are adapted for life under these conditions; allowing the animals to eat, process food, and reproduce.

The highest temperature bacteria can withstand is 113° Celsius (235° Fahrenheit), and the highest any animal can withstand is 50° Celsius (122° Fahrenheit). One animal which thrives near hydrothermal vents is the Bythograea thermydron, of "Vent Crab" - their numbers are so vast that scientists are using the crab clusters to locate hydrothermal vents.

Crabs and Angler Fish are but few of the many species of the Mariana Trench. One mud sample taken from Challenger Deep by Oceanographers from the Kaiko yielded nearly over 200 different microorganisms. Although there seems to be an abundance of life at these depths, no human being could withstand the pressure extremes.

Another interesting characteristic of these deep sea creatures is their longevity; many of these animals having a lifespan of over one hundred years, provided of course that they do not end up in fishing nets. Since these creatures seldom migrate and are slow to develop, there is growing concern over their endangerment.

Most of the planet's oceans are very dark. At a depth of 150 meters (approx. 500 feet), there is little if any light left, and colors are no longer visible to the human eye. As odd as it may seem, we know more about outer space than we do about the deep oceans of our own planet.

The ocean floor at such depth consists of pelagic sediment, also known as biogenous "ooze". Pelagic sediment is composed of shells, animal skeletons, decaying microorganisms and plants; it is generally yellowish and very viscous.

Ummmm, OK. but th Mariana Trench is in the Pacific. The NY coast is on the Atlantic. The Chaui Station is on the Atlantic Ridge. My answer to Ivo's question was regarding the location of the Mariana Trench station which may or may not have any relation to the Atlantic Ridge station. But I know it didn't really come across that way. Thanks for the info...I have heard Megalodon STILL lives in the Mariana Trench!!! Laughing

Here is some info on regarding the ocean floor area where Chuai Station is located (from a post I made a couple months back):
Quote:

Chuai Station also appears to be over the North American Abyssal Plain which has an average depth of 16,000 feet and to the west of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, it is a submarine ridge extending north to south in a sinuous path midway between the continents. Roughly 1,500 km (930 mi) wide, the ridge has a more rugged topography than any mountain range on land, and is a frequent site of volcanic eruptions and earthquakes. The ridge ranges from about 1 to 3 km (0.6 to 2 mi) above the ocean bottom.

This is pertaining to the fan & Jamie:

As you know, Jamie wrote on the back of the 1-18-08.com photo "Spreading my hotness far and wide"

Well, in the Slusho! commercial, the mermaid is trying to hammer the picture to the ocean, but there isn't a wall there. The mermaid is wearing an oven mitt...so could that be an analogy of:

Jamie spreading her hotness? The mermaid wearing an oven mitt because the hammer is hot? Just a random thought.

Jamie eventually following directions??

hey, maybe Jamie gets a clue after all and throws the thing in the freezer, only to get drunk later (maybe at a party) and attempts to make some slushy frozen drinks of their own. Even smart people could make that stupid, drunk mistake.

That sort of blows the time/temp theory, but the resulting reaction to their homemade slusho could be the result of many things.

I think the very fact that Jaime wrote "...use this photo to send a message of my hotness far and wide!!!..." on the photo located on the 1-18-08 website denotes that she isn't getting back to Teddy by 1-18-08, nor is she going to deal with his capture in a mature manner.

I wouldn't be surprised if Jamie threw out the tape and the "evidence", gave Hawk the SLUSHO! hat, and resumed sleeping with every guy within a 5 mile radius.

The highest temperature bacteria can withstand is 113° Celsius (235° Fahrenheit), and the highest any animal can withstand is 50° Celsius (122° Fahrenheit). One animal which thrives near hydrothermal vents is the Bythograea thermydron, of "Vent Crab" - their numbers are so vast that scientists are using the crab clusters to locate hydrothermal vents.

So the ocean floor at 500 ft is pelagic sediment? I am still not sure why you brought up the Mariana Trench, there isn't a Tagruato drilling station there. Seems the one over the Mid Atlantic Ridge is the one we should focus on. Is this just a general statement? The Mariana Trench is something like 36,000 ft. below sea level...

EDIT: I did know where the Mariana Trench was, communication is hard on the internets. Wink

Not exactly random stuff. It was in a gift from her boyfriend. If it looks like say a (homemade) candybar for instance, or a cookie?

Incidentally, as long as we havent seen the label on the bag, I support the idea that: "Primary Evidence" "Freeze immediatly" might be stenciled, or written by the Tagruato scientists who work on the project, with "Jamie, don't eat this" written on by Teddy, on some spare room on the lable...
