If that's the case chuck, I'd bet a manned mission to mars will be on the table by the end of the year. :D BTW, I've got some questions about optical adhesive. If you've got some time to help me out with some advice or even a small project then message me off list. Josh On Tue, Nov 20, 2012 at 6:56 PM, Chuck Hards <chuck.hards@gmail.com> wrote:

Those aren't scoops of sand, it's a small squad of hyper-intelligent toads who are in a loose military formation. Unfortunately, this may be the last image transmitted by the rover, unless we get a fast close up of a bloodshot amphibian eyeball...

They reported that they were afraid the sample chamber was contaminated by earth air, so I am guessing something less complex.

I can't imagine what kind of a chemical signature would cause such a
ruckus, so I'm going to go out on a limb here, and speculate that they've found fossilized evidence of ancient life. _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy

Note: Replying on a smartphone sucks. Obviously, none of the software developers are over the age of 45. Screw these people. The folks who deal with real-life difficulties will rule the market. On Nov 21, 2012 5:07 PM, "Chuck Hards" <chuck.hards@gmail.com> wrote:

I believe you have a very fertile imagination, Chuck. After all, one who likes L & O is a cut above. I know you are not a kid, but do you remember the winged head liberty dimes? Often called the Mercury dime. It was just a play on words involving planet Mercury and the Mercury dime to form the unknown silvery droplets discovered by Curiosity. But, it must have been pretty good as Dan (who is one of the sharper knives in the drawer), told me it took him a while to get it. On 11/23/2012 4:12 PM, Chuck Hards wrote:
