Just for fun some years ago, I wrote an Onion-style satire article about, "Whale language decoded; actually a cipher for Spanish". The gist was a lot of the researchers with names like Jones and Smith were disappointed. And the one guy on the research team with a Spanish last name was getting a lot of weird comments about it which made him uncomfortable. 75% of the whale song was decoded to just mean, "Oy mira! Camaron!" Dolphins were discovered to be speaking a cipher for English, but with a Chicano accent. Some of my friends found it funny, others didn't get it. --- I'm really interested to hear what they're actually talking about!
