You have mistaken admiration for derision, let me make myself clearer.

I have dropped many BG over the years, both accidently and on purpose, but have never before observed the Spark Plug Spasm of Death. I can only conclude that this phenomenon occurs in HBG due to an inherent flaw in these fish which results from the addition of genetic defects from the Green Sunfish lineage. You know, kind of like the hemophilia that plagued the Romanovs. Lots of inbreeding in that bunch, too, and we know how Green Sunfish feel about their cousins, not to mention their brothers and sisters.

Anyway, your experience has led me to many ideas involving Green Sunfish, gravity, and death. I am currently working on an addition to Newtons Universal Law of Gravitation. I've got the mass part down, and I'm ok with the inverse of the distance squared, but I'm having trouble figuring out the Constant of Death for Green Sunfish.

Were the heck is Theo when you need him?
