Yeah the time lapse was cool. I just thought that the way the article made this sound like a new discovery was absurd.

I had a blasto fall behind a rock that i couldn't get for awhile. Pretty much wrote it off as dead, but every time i looked, it was on top of the sand even after being buried by my goby's. I've saved it now, it hates light, but at least it's mounted :P
