Amid growing concern about how to dispose of a booming population of
jellyfish - including 6-foot-long monsters weighing more than 400
pounds - scientists in Japan are reporting development of a process
for extracting a commercially-valuable biomaterial from the marine
animals. Their report is scheduled for the July 27 issue of ACS
Journal of Natural Products, a monthly publication. Read more at my
Blog Marine animal news (http://marineanimalnews.blogspot.com) and
see the vivid creaturers at my blog Videos of blue waters (http://blue-

Typical topsy turvy approach to reality that composes Japanese
culture, ancient and modern. After disposing of all the sea life in
Melanesia and Polynesia, they are back killing whales for scientific
fishmongers. And now this.

How is a scientist from Japan defined?
The price of fish?
The cost of total eradication of all marine life?
