    Default Cool looking moth I found this morning.

    I found this big guy on my storage building in my back yard this morning. He is over 4" long. Anyone know what he is?

    People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People’s heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.

    That is pretty cool. It's kind of manta ray shaped or something.

    If he would have been 4 foot long I would have ran inside and called the news. Would have been cool to discover the largest moth in the world.

    Dude, that's awesome! Way more exotic looking than anything I've found.

    I think we should have an "Adventure thread" dedicated to photos our members have taken that are out of the norm. From strange insects to once in a lifetime sceneries or occurrences. Especially since Summer is coming up, as one mentioned.
