AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the origins of an avatar linked to a creepy extraterrestrial photo, which is referenced in fringe news. The user explains that their current avatar is a magnified image of microalgae, humorously engaging in a conversation about the nature of their avatar. They clarify that microalgae primarily produce sugars and long-chain hydrocarbons, such as those used for ethanol and biodiesel, rather than methane, which is associated with flatulence. The exchange is lighthearted, blending humor with scientific facts about microalgae and their byproducts.

Just for fun... I'm not making any claims here.

A story involving the origins of my old avatar is in the fringe news.

I thought it was about the creepiest [so called] ET photo that I'd ever seen, hence the choice. :biggrin:

FYI, my current avatar is a highly magnified shot of microalgae with the fuel producing oil pockets stained red.

So your saying your not really a "gray", but in fact you are a microalgae? What in the world has Tsu been feeding you?
 
Mostly nitrogen.
 
And you produce methane? :stink:
 
is I guess a more appropriate emoticon. Methane is a the primary ingredient of um, flatulence.
 
Microalgaes produce mainly sugars and long-chain hydrocarbons - eg for ethanol and biodiesel. :biggrin:
