Frozen Cows Found In Aspen Cabin


Recommended Posts

Rangers believe the cows wandered into the cabin near the popular Conundrum Hot Springs during a snowstorm but couldn't find their way out. Air Force Academy cadets found their frozen carcasses while snowshoeing in late March.

Removal options include explosives or burning down the cabin.

 

Explosives or burning down the cabin? WTF? Sounds like a cover story for the results of a biological weapons test gone wrong, and maybe the government needs to incinerate the cows and the cabin to prevent contagion.

 

You decide.

... its one of the reasons why my dream job is to be on MythBusters........

I know it's more about entertainment than science, but sometimes when I watch it I think to myself "you people are idiots" when I see some of the methods/theories they are using.

 

Getting back to the original topic, it could be the cows have decayed so much that they have no option but burning down the cabin. Mythbusters did an episode where they left a pig to decay in a Corvette, then tried to clean it to see if they could get a buyer. Everyone (if I remember correctly) was so disgusted by the smell even after cleaning, that the only person that was willing to buy the car, was going to sell off the parts.

Blowing stuff up or burning it down are usually my first thoughts when having to decide what to do with something, its one of the reasons why my dream job is to be on MythBusters........

 

Haven't seen them around, but they are local in the SF Bay area. The Alameda Sheriff's Bomb Range is just over two miles away, on the other side of the reserve base in town. Someone recently put a geocache near where a cannonball accidentally went through a house (an episode that won't air). The cannon must have been overloaded considering where the range is in relation to where the cannonball ended up.

Would you like a tinfoil hat? Based on research at MIT, I won't wear mine unless solar flares are interfering with satellite communications anyway:

An excerpt from the MIT report:

 

Conclusion

 

The helmets amplify frequency bands that coincide with those allocated to the US government between 1.2 Ghz and 1.4 Ghz. According to the FCC, These bands are supposedly reserved for ''radio location'' (ie, GPS), and other communications with satellites (see, for example, [3]). The 2.6 Ghz band coincides with mobile phone technology. Though not affiliated by government, these bands are at the hands of multinational corporations.

It requires no stretch of the imagination to conclude that the current helmet craze is likely to have been propagated by the Government, possibly with the involvement of the FCC. We hope this report will encourage the paranoid community to develop improved helmet designs to avoid falling prey to these shortcomings.

 

More research is needed, though, because they only tested 3 helmet designs.

:lol: Only at MIT. I'm surprised that didn't make the Journal of Irreproducible Results.
