    Hehe. No, it's these little guys: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tubifex_tubifex

    They've simply huddled together so it looks like a single creature.

    PS. Did anyone else get a chuckle that two of the related videos are about Michael Jackson? Not to speak ill of the dead...

    No, there isn't, but the imagination surely conjures up the massive beast that has created that web!

    And no, Thor, there is no GIANT spider, just loads of social ones.

    And Martijn, D, Lee....it is TOTALLY SAFE TO VIEW.

    Martijn D Lee....sounds like the name for a director or screenwriter wink

    Cool!

    Law was earlier than religion? I have always been told law had a lot of its fundamentals from religion.

    One learns a thing everyday. Or am I just ignorant?

    Religions have a tendency to take credit for anything that's widely considered to be good. Nothing but a propaganda technique.

    Unwritten laws (i.e. rules of conduct) have been in our lineage long before humans evolved. Unwritten religion made its entrance later, but before Homo sapiens evolved. As soon as the written language was invented all this stuff was written down.
