    Snakes keep growing their entire lives too.

    What did they say about Beethoven?

    So people have been causing earthquakes all along?

    May the Lord be with you.

    Is that a good thing for the seismology thing? (What is the largest kangaroo to date anyway?)

    Lobsters also.

    When it it is quiet I hear my pulse in my left ear.

    Of course he could hear. He had to hear what he’s composing, didn’t he?

    Fewer vibrations? Really? Can that even be measured? Don’t tell me it’s another hack research which is not peer reviewed.

    Big deal, Kangaroos. Everyone keeps growing their entire life. Growing old, that is.

    So now I am wondering how many mammals keep growing throughout their lives…and I don’t mean fatter humans.

    Great composers Beethoven and Brian Wilson. Funny how that is.

    Not surprised about the dip in vibrations one. As for Beethoven, I didn’t know historians thought he was deaf in the first place.

    They say your ears and nose continues to grow all your life as well, but I personally don’t think so, I think they appear bigger because your face sags as you age

    That’s not a new discovery. It’s long been known that Beethoven could perceive lower notes until the end of his life.

    Seismologists, like many other scientists and learned people, have probably observed a lot of dips in the world.

    Take care, may the moored be with you, and gesundheit.

    In the human male, the only two things that keep growing over our entire life is our noses and ears. Oh the shame of it all.

    Aboriginal Australians routinely raised pet kangaroos to heights of 35 feet or more until they were ‘discovered’ by short Europeans.

    Beethoven told his wife he was deaf.

    The dip in the Earth’s vibration was followed by a crash in the economy.

    Earth is the Solar System’s dildo. Keep vibrating!

    I guess that’s why we’ve never seen “Attack of the 50 Foot Kangaroo”; a kangaroo old enough to be 50 feet tall would be too old to go on the attack.

    I must admit: HOW did they make the discoveries about Beethoven?

    Must have been quite a project to get Beethoven’s corpse up to test its hearing…
