Removal of Purple Kelp Phrase
The phrase "Different kinds of kelp that are pink or purple produce a methane gas that makes living possible for fish" seemed to be a part of the page absolute astronomy. As I did a google search I found that the phrase no longer was a part of the site, but only existed on google's cache from November 8,.

I think there was some confusion about the purple sea urchin which is eating kelp, and possibly the methane might be the gas in the plant bladders that help kelp float. The new article at absolute astronomy is pretty much copied from wikipedia and says nothing about purple kelp. It seemed best to remove the phrase until someone who knows more about kelp can sort out what the truth is here. --John Baab 03:35, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
