Human Speech Traced to Talking Fish

During midsipman mating season, houseboat owners in San Francisco Bay have complained that their homes vibrate from the humming, which sound like a high-speed motor running underwater.

Hear all about it here.  Somehow it doesn’t surprise me that fish fucking and human speech have a common origin. “I couldn’t see in that cave so who needs eyes? I’m over here, baby.” Sounds like a damn Italo Calvino story.
