Weird Historical Facts

Four pages about fake grasshoppers. Impressive.

Why not leave the giant grasshopper and focus on the title of this topic, which clearly says «facts»?

To stay in the world of tiny, some female dragonflies fake death to avoid male dragonflies looking to get laid. The female ones drop down to earth if they are not interested.

Evidently there is a lot to learn from giant grasshoppers.

^ This is a progressive music site, science progresses; and you, beyond a shadow of a doubt, don't/can't. I didn't say or mean that "you don't question anything." Period. I meant, you don't question pre-established scientific "facts". Do I have to make you aware that the real scientists do that? At least the progressive ones? If you had been living in the past, you would have taken its scientific "facts" as granted. Ah, you also believe in God. Here's a quote for you. Your "belief" will be like this in the following centuries or millennia: "The altar cloth of one aeon is the doormat of the next." — Mark Twain

^ Ah, I said "most likely" as for not replying to you. Lucky me, I didn't say certainly. So I can reply. I NEVER claimed that I know anything about this matter. Do you want a fact? I would have questioned the certainty about the Earth being in the center of the Universe, and not rotating around its own axis, even if I had been living before the Common Era; and you wouldn't.

Discussing with you is like discussing with a robot... 

Someone bring the Deep Blue chess computer here, please. It has a real rival here!!!

So, perhaps I can find some peace of mind...

Oh, you definitely would. By the way, "experts" also say that Dimash's highest note is a D8 and I'm sure that it is a G8. Anyway I'm happy with my imagination. You can be happy with yours too. Have a good night. If you go on making your chess moves, I may use my arcade skills. I really am a grand master in arcade fighting games. I'm really at loss for words, and don't have any other method to "stop" you. All in all, I'll not answer again. Most likely. You can make your "winning" move.

Butts had sowed on his apple orchard, the grasshoppers grew to an astounding 3 ft. in length By the bye, I had a thought about this long long ago, but didn't state it earlier. Lest the bitter discussions "repeat". I kindly request not to discuss it with me. I have a fixed opinion about its probability, and unless you're a genius or you can falsify me with facts, it will not change. Scientific "facts" are always debatable. I mean like a proving that this image is fake. My thought is/was, the formulae of such a thing might have been hidden or might not have been shared with the scientists. The reason for this could be to prevent some real danger. A praying mantis of this size could easily kill humans. Even grasshoppers can do that, if somehow they could have the same movement abilities with their tiny/normal kind. I really am a man of science in principle, but the world is not as it is shown to us. I still think that this is likely fake, but could be real still.
