Creepy crawlies that could crush you like a bug! Er, they are bugs! Oh f*&^!
Darwin:
As the article suggests, don't worry, these have been extinct for hundreds of millions of years.

I heard this on NPR this morning. I'd put a saddle on one and ride it into battle.
Darwin:
Thought the US Military was already riding Scorpions into battle?!

Suggests? SUGGESTS?!
I want iron-clad assurances these things are dead, dead, dead. Curse you Guardian and your ambiguous reporting! Either I hear confirmation they're extinct or I'm buying an elephant gun tomorrow.
Darwin:
I don't think an elephant gun will do it - you're going to need more firepower than that. These things were also marine creatures, so think in terms of nuclear submarines and torpedoes.
