You can hear them screaming when you throw them in.

The funny thing is that some of the suggestions won't work, and there will still be "the reaction" by the lobster. I have these types of debates with Progressives way, way too often. They assume ... without any scientific basis or background.

And when I take issue with that, not their stance, but their basis, they immediately assume my application of science is 'selective' and I'm a 'right winger.' No, all I'm saying is that my application of science is greater than their assumption, not that I necessarily disagree with their stance.

I guess that's what bothers me most any more. People are so focused on stances ... instead of the scientific basis for them.

Yeah, all that screaming really strains their vocal chords.*

You don't have to cook it alive. You can kill it just before you put it in your pot. Most restaurants do it that way to begin with.

If you read the original article, they are trying to make a point that the knife method doesn’t kill the lobster due to its neurology.
