Re: reading the minds of bacteria...

[Guest guest]

I agree with Barb. There are all kinds of " intelligence " , maybe even

all kinds of brains. Just because we can't recognize " intelligence "

with our own gigantic brains, doesn't mean it doesn't exist somehow.

Or that ours isn't the result of self preservation just as much as

the bacteria's is. Maybe their's is just more efficient. Doesn't

even need a brain. Takes up less space. :-)

Tony, you should know all that. You're the perfect example of a

unique brain. :-) (I do have to compliment folks on their restraint

here, considering you've been setting yourself up pretty good with

this. I've been holding my breath :-).

We've got such big brains, yet we have such difficulty figuring out

how to beat bacteria so small we can't even see them (or their tiny

little brains). :-)

I don't know if it's intelligence or what, but I'd be willing to

trade some of my brain power for some of theirs. :-)
