Dupe, dude. Great post, anyway.

it's not really a dupe anymore becuase the other video was swapped out with a different one.

I recall two previous in the last two days.

I like eric3579's scientific descriptions better anyway.

that's just slightly creepy!

it's kind of like a lava lamp!

Time to swim nekkid!!-bet it feels all creepy on yer unit....

If the cave 'no longer exists,' then how do you know there was one?

I'm amazed at how much conjecture and 'consensus' is taken for science now days.

Remember this, in the time of Galileo science was absolutely positive that the universe (planets, sun, etc.) revolved around the Earth. They had the models, charts, and mathematical formulas, to prove it, and they all worked. They also had those in power fully supporting their theories as fact. The problem is, they were wrong, despite their models and complicated formulas. Today it's no different, except complicated charts and models are replaced with computer models that are just as 'without a clue' and lacking in any real science as those of old.

Science knows far too little to be able to claim 'this is how it happened' without any real cold hard scientific proof. Otherwise it's an 'educated guess' despite the number of degrees the person(s) may have and how many other scientists may agree with them (have a consensus). It still doesn't make it any more true, it's just a theory.

With that said, all of your figures and models can be fit together beautifully and 'work' flawlessly to 'prove' a point, yet you can be totally wrong anyway.

Sorry, I followed a tangent way too far, but remember that next time someone tries to tell you they know how to predict climate and what's going to happen in the next 10 years.

What's that have to do with jelly fish? I have no clue... oh yeah, they came from a cave that doesn't exist anymore.

Well maybe there is evidence that there was once a cave. Maybe it is very strong evidence. Maybe it is still there in some form but the water levels changed or the was a rockslide that cut it off. You make as much(if not more) conjecture in your assumptions about what scientist do or do not know than you have any right to make while complaining about it.

Seems you may be confusing the whole "theory" issue.

Need to put a few bass in there.

supersparky... man, way to take something with which you haven't even bothered to look into, and conclude that science is wrong.

How about the description is actually a little out, in reality these islands rose out of the ocean as small islands are a want to do, and this lake was created as it happened, also through changes in sea levels. (http://www.fishnfins.com/Jelly%20Lake.html)

Now, a lake which is not kept fed by sea water will usually become fresh water over time via evaporation, except in this case:

"Fissures in the limestone island allow for the transfer of saltwater from the ocean, yet keep other forms of aquatic life outside."

So, yeah, we kinda do know how it came to pass.

How the hell has this sift become an argument? Jellyfish...caves...raving cucumbers...who the f*ck cares?

The problem is, they were wrong,

Says the man, citing his formulas, evidence and observations

Where's SpongeBob and Patrick when you need them?

Ok, who wants to fund a trip, when I go I'll take a video of me stuffing one down the front of my swim trunks.
