June 19, 2008: Shark & Fisherman

The first picture is real, but it's a researcher, not a fisherman.

The second picture, from the french magazine, is bullshit. It may have some basis in fact, but not related to any of the pictures.

Notice the toothy pictures are by Michael Scholl, of the Great White Shark trust. Smithsonian Magazine just did a feature article of Scholl and his work.

Smithsonian - one of the best magazines for the sheer variety of topics it covers. Anyone who reads Smithsonian must be a decent fellow.
