   They found one of those in Sweden just last fall as well, though in that case it was probably someone who had discarded a dried, preserved, version of the same fish. Turns out they’re fairly popular souvenires…for some odd macabre reason.

   Here’s the article about that find, though only avaliable in Swedish: http://www.aftonbladet.se/vss/stockholm/story/0,2789,999050,00.html

   The way it’s sprawled on the table with its fins drooping and the camera drifting over it is a little reminiscent of Roswell, but that music just throws you off.

   I would not eat something like that if I didn’t know what it was.

   That reminds me of an anecdote Solzhenitsyn included in one of his books. There was a news story about a wooly mammoth discovered frozen in Siberia. The animal was so well-preserved that people ate the meat “with relish”. The point of the news story was to show how intact the specimen was. Solzhenitsyn (and probably every other Russian who read it) saw in that statement the desperate hunger of the citizens who would eat thousands-of-years old meat.

   I think the Solzhenitsyn anecdote was in reference to an ancient fish that were found frozen in ice. I think it was in The Gulag Archipelago.

    apropos mammoth - there is a Kotzwinkle short-story about 19th-century-or-so siberians finding and eating one …

    apropos eating aliens: humankind is DOOOOOMED - retribution will be merciless!
