A mile and a half (two and a half kilometers) underwater, a remote control submersible's camera has captured an eerie surprise: an alien-like, long-armed, and—strangest of all—"elbowed" Magnapinna squid.

    As long as they don't get Opposable Thumbs, we're ok, but we should stock up on Depth Charges.....just in case PDT_Armataz_01_23

    It'a an oil rig. We can still "Kill it with fire".
    Everyone knows that fire and electricity are sure to kill freek'n alien monsters.

    Seriously though. There's till a hell of a lot of ocean that we know nothing about so getting suprised is just par for the course. Considering this is a new species though.. can we eat all the Koala bears now?

    Y'all are welcome to come on down to live band night at the turf and sing some old truck driv'n songs.

    :D

    Like I said earlier.. This is a new species right? So we can eat one because we're ahead of the game, right? I vote we eat the koala bears.
