Or sucking the poor critters up into huge freezer trawlers? Certainly a possibility if we are far enough down into the atmosphere where liquids occur, and in a nicely positioned de-pressurized giant super-dome so that things aren’t completely squinched by the overpowering gravity. A construct something akin in magnitude though complete opposite in composition and behaviour to the Red Spot of Jupiter. 😛
Edit:, Hmmmm, might be possible for enough in air to be pumped into the atmosphere of the dome to increase its buoyancy – not sure.
Good news that WebCrawler is still alive, providing a snappy response to queries. Made a personal copy of the front page of Aliweb, the Web’s oldest search engine, because of the sheer age of the category items. The site is © 2009, however the search index was modified much earlier, not long after 9/11 probably, thus most of the links are either re-directs or down the gurgler. And – er – believe it or not, Cagles is still going strong. 🙂
The mystery of the original gaming zone before MS took over continues, posted here on it – could it be some of Sierra’s content might have been borrowed by certain parties?
