[MR] Recent finding involving the Stierbach "mascot"

[Jim Springle]

  Well, if you look closely the dye would have been green (under a 
blacklight) and not blue. The green fluorescent protein extracted from 
jellyfish can be inserted into the genome of mammals (see 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alba_%28rabbit%29). I use it to check my E. 
coli  growing procedures in my bioreactors.

Maybe, we might have to redefine the "rouge" Stierbach Ox to be "vert" 
instead.

(note to self: bring my blacklight to WoW V to see if anybody glows green)

Rather, we made extensive use of tissue culture flasks and incubators, a laminar flow hood, and appropriate growth medium.  My thanks to the USDA for providing materials, and to the FDA for accepting the bribes.

>> After a closer inspection of the Stierbach Bull, it seems the Bull is not a Bull at all..but rather an Ox. As all know, an Ox is incapable of fathering offspring in the "normal" manner. We have found after extensive DNA testing the Stierbach Ox does indeed seem to be the father of the litter of Redbulls. How can this be you ask, well we have uncovered a nefarious plot, and traced the perpetrators across our borders and up into the north. It would appear that persons unknown from the north (along with pitrie dishes and test tubes) were involved. I know their Excellencies Stierbach to be good and gentle people, and could not possibly be involved in this.I ask they help us seek out and find the perpetrators. What manner of fiends from the north could be behind this?

We in Sacred Stone had also considered a cookbook...unfortunately the Stierbach Ox is a little on the small side.even though he seems to have a voracious appetite for our sweet southern grass.  Due to this we tabled the idea....in favor of animals with more meat on their bones like rabbit or quail and fish.
