    Thought you were bringing up the new Flea Market rule.

    I thought Flipper ended up in a tuna net.
    The best way to predict the future is to invent it.

    It is imperative that we recognize that an opinion is not a fact.

    Flippers voice was really that of the kookaburra bird

    All dolphins used were female as there was more than one "flipper"

    Dolphin doing the tailwalk was a male the only male Mr Gipper and only did the tailwalk

    Fl set was used to film Gentle Ben after Flipper and finally Ranger Rick went on to become the exec producer of Blade Runner.....
