Caterpillar Invasion Part II!![]() picture Continued from yesterday... Boothey's severe reaction to the processionary caterpillar is just the tip of the iceberg, entomologists warn. The processionary caterpillar is the larva of the bag-shelter moth, which has been spreading as global warming alters the climate. Not only are more colonies of fast-breeding caterpillars being found, but they appear to be spreading to different countries. "We've received reports of processionary caterpillar colonies threatening to overwhelm towns in Indonesia, Taiwan and Peru," explains Dr. Simon Jefferson, an expert in bag-shelter moths. "At least three people have been hospitalized, and one child died after a branch loaded with caterpillars fell on her." "This behavior is entirely new, and they're being discovered in places we've never seen them before. Somehow, the moths are spreading to places where they've never been able to reach." "It's only a matter of time before they reach highly populated areas of Brazil and North America - and when that happens, it could be devastating." |

| Caterpillar Invasion Part I!! video America is about to be invaded by a creeping horde of deadly caterpillars. The small worms, called processionary caterpillars, are covered with brittle hairs that normally cause skin rashes on those that touch them. But scientists are studying a bizarre infestation in which massive numbers of creatures are suddenly breeding out of control, sending clouds of stinging, choking hairs into the air. The town of Yandaran, Australia, has spent 18 months covered in a living blanket of toxic worms. And the more caterpillars there are, the more they're affecting the locals. "It's more than a plague - it's like living in a real-life nightmare," explains Dallas Boothey, who is so dangerously allergic to the caterpillars, she has to wear a full-body suit every time she leaves her home. "I have to put this stupid white suit on, disposable overalls on and be fully covered head to toe to walk the dogs." "otherwise, I swell up in hives and get really itchy eyes. It gives me respiratory problems as well." This story will be continued on the next update... : ) see you soon! |

Texts Into Space![]() picture Text messages - the form of communication loved by all - are being sent into outer space by scientists attempting to contact extraterrestrials. A satellite dish directs the high tech missives across our Milky Way galaxy with radio waves. Now, people wanting to reach out and touch an alien are besieging the Web site www.SentForever.com to transmit their messages. "Lots of people believe we're not alone," says spokesman Chris Thomason. "They send messages saying, 'I am here, I am ready,' or 'Waiting for you to contact me.'" (fruitcakes) Another texter wrote: "I know aliens exist and I know where. But governments hide the truth." |
