IMO hard to tell

Wed, 2011-09-28 08:14

But logic is logic.

A red patch and something that can look like a shark, but maybe weed etc can add up to a kill and shark captured.

Its not beyond reason.

So I say probably not, but I can see why others say probably.

No point slamming anyone over their point off view here. I dont think we will ever get the correct answer, but both are plausible.
