Theos-World Re: Whale slaughter...please enter "blog" comment.

Someone mentioned earlier that there is video exposing the Jap ships 
that are slaughtering whales so the expose part has been taken care 
of and now all we have to do if I hear you right, is sit back and let 
nature take the proper course of action. I don't mind waiting, I can 
use the time to read thru the SD a couple more times, what do you 
plan to do while you are waiting. 

I have to admit tho that I feel somewhat like a dharma bum in this 
scenario and I don't think the whales will like this plan none too 
much either.
