Whales use different tactics to catch fish. On of the most interesting 
ways they feed is to use a cloud of bubbles to concentrate the prey. 
The whale or whales swim underwater releasing clouds of bubbles that 
rise to the surface in a dense cloud. Perhaps the tiny fish try to 
hide in the cloud of bubbles or maybe the bubbles just confuse the 
fish. The whale then swims through the bubble clouds catching all the 
fish. 

Instant messaging?  Echolink?  IRC Chat Rooms?   During Contests? 

I can just imagine the conversation in the Multi-Multi chat room 
during a contest: 

K1TTT:  All stations: we've just found a loose concentration of 
unworked single-ops calling CQ between 3522 and 3537.   

W3LPL:  Okay.  We'll ooch up on 'em from 3522.  W4MYA, can you start 
moving them down from 3537?  Once we get them uncomfortably close 
together, they'll jump to S&P and we can nail them as they move out. 

K5GO:  We're just below K1TTT, so we should be able to pick off the 
ones who have skipped TTT. 

KC1XX:  Hopefully, no one will jump in the middle and mess everything 
up for us.  

N2RM:  Hey!  We've just found another group on 7042-7055.  I'll take 
7055 and move 'em down.  Who can help by pressing from below?
