If ever in doubt about that large black fish swimming towards you while bathing in the sea then remember this fact...

All sea mammals, without exception, swim by bending their bodies up and down; while all fish, without exception, do so by flexing their bodies from side to side. It may not be a shark :)

This coming Thursday (6th Dec 2007) the Space Shuttle is due to be launched from Cape Canaveral. There is a contingency plan in place should anything go wrong before it reaches space whereby a 2 mile long military runway in Gloucestershire, England, will allow it to touch down.
