I fail to see what is so problematic about this that can't be solved by a few tanker trucks of butter,sixteen tons of spices, and a really, really big pot.

Not to blow my own trumpet, but the Moose Rebellion has known about this for ages - see the Crustacean Alliance on our website.

It seems you were right. I apoligize for the doubt. Where do I sign up?

Months old, already posted news, same site and picture as I recall. Looks like they might be recycling stories

I just talked to a friend of mine who lives in Sweden. He knows nothing about that, thinks its fake since they'd have to wander through his backyard to get to Norway.

Such incidents have been recorded before, so this isn't news to me.

However, I just saw Starship Troopers again on TV and I have the Klendathu Drop music in my head now and crabs invading places. The Red Army moves on.

Would you like to know more?

Have a very nice day.

Holy shit! The Invid invasion has begun!

But really, this is pretty interesting.

Wow, those things are huge.

Man, that'd keep a guy in crab meat for weeks! Must get some!

Well, at least there will be a glut of crabmeat for lunch.

10 million crabs? sounds like a cure for world hunger to me.

And what a cure! Crab's great! But did you see how much the stuff costs?

Oh well. Mass catch 'em, that'll drive prices down, but then you open up markets in places with famine and get it all back. It'd have to be subsidized by the UN or somebody, though. I doubt Ethiopia could front very much cash at all.

Heck, just *give* it to them. Unless they would rather go chase chickens...

*Joke: What is the fastest bird in the world? an Ethiopian chicken.*

make sure you remember this the next time you want to have sex with a fair haired Norwegian beauty: Norwegians have crabs.

We're going to need a big hammer for these things.

Am I the only one here with a fear of crabs?

Crab Sushi, anyone?
