Ive been doing some research. My theory is that if eating fish is brain food then why not go to the source of what makes fish so smart. What do fish eat ? Other fish right ? Smarter fish than them. So my experiments are geared towards figuring out through complicated science stuff you wouldnt understand which fish are the smartest.If for example it turns out cod are the stupid ones and thats all you eat then you will end up stupid.In the mean time Im eating fish food flakes and pellets then weighing my brain after each meal.Genius ?

Why not just roll your brain in the flakes before returning it to the cranium. Absorption could help too.

I had a goldfish that liked to eat poop.

NO! Nomad, don't do it.................................

Makes perfect sense to me.



Just need to know one thing - how exactly do you weigh your brain?





Does it have to come out of your head or have you worked out how much a head weighs sans brains and then can calculate the difference.



I feel that it is important to know these things if we decide to follow your lead and become fellow fish food eaters.

This is all about the catfish isn't Nomad? Come on Nommie you are better than this.



CATFISH ARE PEOPLE TOO!!!

:yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl Sorry Nomie I'm laughing to hard to make any comments. Just keep us updated on your findings, you may be onto something.

OH..!! By the way there are "Fish Oil" capsules might work as well.

[Carla_____OH..!! By the way there are Fish Oil capsules might work as well.]-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Are you a mad scientist ? No I didnt think so.Fish oil capsules are decades away.Trust me, Ive tried squeezing the oil from fish and its like fresh squeezing 57 oranges for an 8oz glass of juice.The technology just isnt there yet

Nomie I been called MAD but never a scientist. :yh_rotfl Trust me on this there are "Fish Oil" capsules on any shelf in your Stores Pharmacy section. Someone has already done the work for you, stop squeezing the fish.

If this is true which I highly doubt then Im not troubled in the least. Ive been toying with the idea of a fish sport drink.

Now your talking just make it taste like something other than fish and you could make millions..~~

that's a great idea but how would the fishies be able to hold the bottles?

Fish Sport Drink - isn't that what you call a can of Sardines ..?

So the bottom line is - Detective Work is Slow, yeh...?

ahhhh sea kittens:-4



The animal rights campaign group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, PETA, has decided to play off of people's awe of kittens by re-branding fish as "sea kittens" in order to discourage people from killing and eating them.

"Would people think twice about ordering fish sticks if they were called Sea Kitten sticks? Help us save fish by changing their names!" PETA writes on its Web site.

The new sea kitten Web portal is complete with a petition, cute little stories about sea kittens – some attend Clamster University! – and a tool to design your own sea kitten.

The petition has more than 4 544 signatures as of this writing.

"Given the drastic situation for this country's [United States] sea kittens – who are often the victims of many major threats to their welfare and ways of life — it's high time that the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) stop allowing our little sea kitten friends to be tortured and killed. Who'd want to hurt a sea kitten anyway?!" the Web site asks.

How far will this "sea kitten" label extend?

Will people find themselves ordering the "Chilean striped sea kitten with mashed potatoes"?

Certainly, there are already vegetarians out there who do not consume fish for ethical reasons.

Princeton professor Peter Singer, famous for his arguments about why not to consume meat, similarly advocates avoiding eating fish in Animal Liberation, although he notes that things do get fuzzier when considering simpler forms of marine life, like molluscs and oysters.

Of course, besides being a favorite delicacy at restaurants and family dinners, fish also form part of specific eating rituals in certain cultures.

For example, in China, the fish is served whole – with the head and tail intact – to represent prosperity, especially on Chinese New Year's Eve.

In Slovakia, it is traditional to let a carp swim in the family bathtub in the days before the feisty critter becomes part of the Christmas meal. And, it is a Jewish custom to eat fish on the Sabbath, one reason being that the numerical value of the Hebrew word for fish, "dag", adds up to seven, and the Sabbath is the seventh day.

So what do you think: Is it ethically acceptable to eat fish?

Will the sea kitten campaign be effective?

Would your goldfish mind being called a sea kitten?

Save your time----------Dr. Raymond W. Fitzimmons of the Oceanographic Institute of Bern Switzerland has already determined that the HALIBUT is the smartest of all fishes, followed by the PURPLE SNAPPER, a close relative of the Red Snapper but not near as intelligent.

Eating the lips and eyes of the HALIBUT rather than the flesh, can improve one's IQ by 22% in as short a time as 6 months. That's if eaten daily.

Hope this piece of information is useful.

For these hard economic times coming, let's all go out to dinner together and have a seafood platter. We should be ready for it then.
