(OP) User ID: 994058 United States 06/08/2010 09:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | We had that on Pensacola Beach last week. Washed up in piles at high tide for miles. WEAR said it was snail shells. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 975367Never seen anything like it myself. Each piece was a perfect cone. Snail shells??? Hmm. They were completely transparent and like you said perfectly, uniformly cone shaped. Odd. Never seen anything like this before either.

In that phytoplankton rely on sunlight and various nutrients to thrive, this may indicate a symptom of the approaching oil as it attacks the lowest levels of the food change. But hey, what do I know. |

The virtue of courage is a prerequisite for the practice of all other virtues, because otherwise one is virtuous only when virtue has no cost. There are times when something needs to be done, and yet we know that if we step up and do this needful thing, we will pay a heavy personal price. -C.S. Lewis |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 875706Dude, Though many planktic (or planktonic—see section on Terminology) species are microscopic in size, plankton includes organisms covering a wide range of sizes, including large organisms such as jellyfish Quoting: [link to en.wikipedia.org] It's usually like microscopic.

The sharp points stick in your feet but break off before they draw blood. You can carry a napkin of the stuff away and it will hold together fine until you break it , then it dissolves like water. |
