The Animaris Rhinoceros Transport: "Since about ten years Theo Jansen is occupied with the making of a new nature. Not pollen or seeds but plastic yellow tubes are used as the basic matierial of this new nature. He makes skeletons which are able to walk on the wind. Eventualy he wants to put these animals out in herds on the beaches, so they will live their own lives." [2MB Quicktime Video]

Great Christ. I know that there was a discussion about double post callouts but I think everyone can agree that this is ridiculous.

Oh lord. I searched. Couldn't believe this hadn't been posted before, searched again. Nothing. I swear. I'll go and hide now. Under my desk.

don't worry muckster, my very first post was a double with a repost time of a week or so, so on the scale of dumbass-ness, you're still below me. And yes, you should hide. For a while.

well, his repost time was about a day. The most recent post hasn't even had a chance to scroll off the front page. How are you calculating dumbass-ness? ;) I wonder what the most repeated front page post has been and over what time period. Hmm, I'm not even sure how to determine that... Maybe a good question for AskMeFi...

I missed this the first (few) time(s) as well. This really is amazing!

Isn't there a bigger issue here? Is the search for doubleposting broken?
