Hi, Doc,

:D When I read this last night, I had the same thought, but didn't have time right then to search for a relevant article. And, tonight when I return, I find you've made it unnecessary for me to do so.

Interesting how this story tends to stick like Super Glue in the mind of every guy who hears it... :whistling:

To Mithrander: "evolution is amazing and awe-inspiring." Amen, brother! B)

The biology of single organisms is amazing enough - but get into symbiosis ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbiosis ) and you can find even more fantistic things.

Aah, the "stories" I've come across over the years... :)

I once gave a talk to a botany club that I titled "Lichens: the ultimate symbiosis?"

But there are lots of fascinating "stories" found in other groups of organisms, too, as DeeBye's post shows...

Regards,

Dako-ta
