Absolutely wonderful. A thousand jubilations to the fine fellows at Oxford, Sydney, and Cambridge.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.158.177.118 (talk • contribs) Very good article . There was once a locust that was some six inches in length ? Well thank god that thing has gone extinct ?Well if the distribution of psychtropic meds to the grasshoppers doesnt work out I have another (albeit perhaps a bit crazy) idea ? I was thinking the use of airships and or hot air balloons with giant lightweight nets slung beneath them ( constructed of fiberglass window screen material and half inch pvc pipe perhaps)working in conjunction with " ground crews " which would close up and secure the nets once the airships and or balloons had captured a bunch of em ? Rounded em up so to speak ? Once secured in " bug bundles" they could at that point be dealt with in any number of ways ? Such as being ground up for chicken feed or fish food for aquafarmers? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.120.33.119 (talk) 05:24, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
I too change from a calm and reclusive loner to a wild gregarious party animal, often converging in fields with swarms of like minded ravers after upping our serotinin levels. I wonder if you slowed locust chirps down enough if they'd sound like house music.
