Possible explanation, US navy testing new sonar technology.

This was weeks ago and has already been explained very well.

“The sardines apparently depleted the water of oxygen and suffocated after getting lost in the marina, officials said.

“All indications are it’s a naturally occurring event,” said Andrew Hughan, a California Fish and Game spokesman at the scene.

The die-off was unusual but not unprecedented.

“In the world of fishing this is an afternoon’s catch,” he noted. ”

Well, since it has already been explained, I’ll make up my own: aliens.

I think it would be a bigger story if it were a million dead cats.

I’m finding it difficult to see the humor in this fishie drama.

@Aster

Well, perhaps because no one is taking you seriously when you post links to stories that are as old as, and less mysterious than…well, a dead fish.

@crisw why is it less of a bizarre phenomena just because it didn’t happen last night? Why would I not be “taken seriously” when I had nothing to do with it?
Listen, @crisw : I am being sincere when I say in all due respect that it is perfectly alright with me if you choose to ignore all my questions starting now. No hard feelings and good luck to you.
