Eggy • February 24, 2006 5:51 PM Does anyone find it ironic that this would be in the "Aromas" area, seeing that the aroma of such a spill could probably take out power by itself? Christoph Zurnieden • February 24, 2006 11:01 PM In case somebody saw it life: Seppie ripiene 4 squids (embowelled), ca. 0.2-0.3 kg each. Cook the vongole in boiling salty water about 5 minutes. Take the meat out (toss shells which are still closed in the garbage!) and cut it roughly. I would propose a simple white wine with it. If you think it is too crunchy: omit the clam-shells next time.
YS • February 26, 2006 6:31 AM I'm guessing that the Friday Squid Blogging is just a clever marketing scheme for your next generation encryption algorithm. i'm right, aren't i? Thomas Sprinkmeier • February 26, 2006 5:00 PM @YS, If such an algorithm were released I wouldn't use it; any claim of security wouldn't have a leg to stand on.

You need an octopus for a hockey game. Davi Ottenheimer • February 27, 2006 11:44 PM Ah, yes, I seem to vaguely remember something about this in the news a while back... piglet • March 1, 2006 9:50 AM http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/story/... It is one of the most mysterious animals on the planet - no one knows how it moves, where it lives, what it eats or how it reproduces. And now members of the public can see one for themselves. Yesterday the most complete giant squid ever found was put on display at the Natural History Museum's Darwin Centre in London.
