HUNT FOR KRAKEN ENDS, BUT MANY MYSTERIES WAIT
By William J. Broad The New York Times

NEW YORK The human instinct to observe nature has always been mixed with a tendency to embroider upon it. So it is that, over the ages, societies have lived alongside not only real animals, but also a shadow bestiary of fantastic ones - mermaids, griffins, unicorns and the like. None loomed larger than the giant squid, the kraken, a great, malevolent devil of the deep. “One of these Sea-Monsters,” Olaus Magnus wrote in 1555, “will drown easily many great ships.”

The kraken remains docile because it’s being fed women chained to rocks.

…a cranky kraken can cause quite a catastrophe, can’t it!?
Consider keeping crabby kraken carefree. Can causal cocktails coax kraken into content creatures? Comtemplate Cosmos, just in case.
