Turtles Go Wireless

neutron_p writes "Ground-breaking work to investigate the migratory movements of marine turtles in the UK Overseas Territories began on the Caribbean "Emerald Isle" of Montserrat this week. Staff from Government of Montserrat attached a satellite transmitter to 'Montserrat', a 150kg green turtle, which will enable her migratory movements to be logged from space and followed live on the internet at http://seaturtle.org/tracking/ Since leaving Montserrat's shores she has already passed through the waters of St Kitts and Nevis but where will she stop? Picture is here."

You, sir, have made my day. If I had mod points and you weren't already at +5, I'd give them to you. :P

Aw man..

I thought for sure they had rigged a real turtle to wirelessly accept LOGO commands... Now that would be cool.

I was just thinking...

It is the turtles, they can finally surf the web, but they waste all of their time reading and submitting to Slashdot. You can tell because they crapped and peed all over the IT section and washed the colors in the Apple section out with their wet feet. They also post a lot of comments with titles like "Frist Psot" or "Important!" about Grits, Natalie Portman, goat sex, and something called GNAA. Damn turtles... screwing everything up, Linking to nasty pictures, modding me down for stupid comments like this

Tomorrow's Story...

If you ping a turtle, won't it bounce off the shell?
