4. Yeah
The thing is, if you post a picture of a puppy of kitty, people fall over themselves to kiss their monitors. I post a picture of these little guys,, and they get ignored.
It's just not right I tell ya.

7. Perhaps they have changed the world........
Maybe you just can't see it. Maybe you can only see it if you're a manatee? Ever think of that?

:shrug:

11. Good point
And technically, there are a few people who weren't even thinking of manatees today, and by posting this it got people to think of them and that changed something in the world.
I guess I better ask that this thread be locked because I spoke too soon.

12. *singing* "Barbara Manateeeeeee!!! You're the One for MEEEE!!"
Actually, I read at yahoo that the manatees may have made a slight comeback this year as the constant hurricanes in Florida led to less boating.
