Here’s a bit of interesting speculation: what if the rumors are true — and the discovery is responsible for the growing number of mysterious animal deaths all over the world (link opens a Google Map with locations and links to news reports)?

Also: more weirdness connected to the death of John Wheeler; Bill Daley goes back to D.C.; Harold Camping predicts the end of the world (again); and news about the fire that destroyed the home of Tom and Nita Horn.
