Not a Drill: SETI Is Investigating a Possible Extraterrestrial Signal From Deep Space


I am not going to wade through all of this. If you have anything specific that endorses your peculiar notions. quote it.

You are afraid to, okay.

Their skin are incredibly sensitive.


Whatever you do, don't you challenge me with biology.
 
What are you talking about?

Here, I'll make it easy. You must have missed something:

I'm really looking forward to the journalism olympics gymnastics talent required to bring this line of discussion circling back around to the topic. It should be quite the spectacle.

Scores to be posted.

You don't know what you are talking about.

Neither do you. What would you know about what a mouse feels?


What's that?

Your score.

Don't feel bad. All scores are 0 so far. Granted, the degree of difficulty here has gotten quite high.
 
I am not a biologist. But I know some Greek. Pachyderm means thick skin. Do you deny it?

Thick skin doesn't mean it's not sensitive to touch. And names, especially those used in nomenclature are often misleading.
 
Ok, let me ask this: How does this skin question relate to how "SETI Is Investigating a Possible Extraterrestrial Signal From Deep Space?"

Can we get to the ultimate point and keep it in that context?
 
FYI: Pachyderm means "Thick Skin". It's obvious that the thicker the skin the less you're able to feel through it.
Did I say NOT? Do you agree that a thicker skin is LESS sensitive than a thinner one?

I don't know if you are really serious or just... This isn't the TNZ. So we need to get back to the original topic of this thread. But the thickness of the skin has absolutely nothing to do with how sensitive it is. It could be a foot thick (like a whale), and can still feel a small invertebrate crawling on it.

The elephant has an incredibly sensitive skin, which plays a important role in their socialization. Their trunk is so sensitive it could sense slight pressure as it moves it around touching and picking up objects.

Let's stop and go back to the original topic before the mod tells us to stop.
