If I am wrong then I will stand up and say sorry. But here is a link to a website http://www.jerrylabella.com/ling.htm this is the fish I have caught. Ijlal I agree that the Molva Molva is not a cobia but a rock ling however did I ever say rock ling? Can't remember saying that? So lets just agree to disagree.
Oh by the way Mensa tested me in 1984 and I have an IQ of 158 ...... but also let me tell you that having a high IQ doesn't mean your anymore intelligent than somebody with an IQ of say 120 it just means that your ability to solve solutions is better. For instance my brother has an IQ of 134 but let me just say he is far more a intelligent person than I. So that blows that one out of the water does it not? I also have a learning disability and having problems with the spelling of some words so again so what? It is a mild form of dyslexia.
And, how did you put it "by your own country's organization, Mensa International" ....... can anybody see that all important word INTERNATIONAL???? hmmmm again that wonderful lack of INTERNATIONAL BROTHERHOOD ...... Mensa was started by 2 Englishmen I agree, but it was started as an INTERNATIONAL Mental Agility Table. The English invented Cricket but its not ours????
Oh and for your reference "The word "Mensa" means "table" in Latin. The name stands for a round-table society, where race, color, creed, national origin, age, politics, educational or social background are irrelevant."
Can we all just agree that fish are called different names by different people all over the world and because of their language differences sometimes these names don't translate into the International Common Language of ENGLISH.
Go to Wikipedia and type in Dorado ..... This fish has got a lot of common names .... Common Dolphinfish, Dolphin, Dorado, and Mahi Mahi ..... Now it is called the Mahi Mahi in Hawaii and it means Strong-Strong but in Persian Mahi Mahi means Fish-Fish ..... dare I say it ..... Same fish different meaning. The same can also go for the word Ling, here is what comes up if you type ling in to Wikipedia:
"Ling may refer to:
Several species of fish:
Burbot, Lota lota.
Blue ling, Molva dypterygia.
Cobia, Rachycentron canadum.
Common ling, Molva molva.
Pink cusk-eel, Genypterus blacodes.
Red hake, Urophycis chuss."
So sorry but again I am right in my description. Wikipedia is not written by a single person it is brought together by everybody throughout the world from thousands of different sources.
As a buddhist at heart (not practicing) let me tell you that Racism is a terrible thing and one that us so called Englishmen get red carded for so easily. I am no more a racist than the Dali Lama is? I believe that all human beings are equal and therefore live equally. My wife for instance is of mid/far east origin and her skin colour is Olive so how could I be a racist and not resent my own wife. My brother's wife is from Nigeria so again same as above. My best friend is a local guy so again same as above my favorite countries in the whole world are Thailand and Malaysia and the reason .... the people and of course the natural beauty, but mainly the people.
So enough of this fighting .... Mr. Ijlal I apologise sincerely for calling you a fool, and idiot and an imbecile and I have no excuse for it ...... but please remember being told I am wrong is both an insult on my trueism and name. I am not a lier. Please everbody in the name of International Brotherhood lets stop this fighting ...... As John Lennon once said "Make Love Not War" by the way he didn't mean make love in the physical way!!!! |
