The Little Almost People - Bacteria

September 11, 2003 7:57 AM

Ahhh bacteria, our little friends, what can't they do? Fight Off AIDS Virus in Women? Check. light up our world? Check. Wipe out all the little fishies in the sea? Check. Eat our flesh? Check. Change out CDs? Check. Heck, they may even work together better than us so it's important you Know your good and bad bugs, or just Learn more. The cute little buggers even have their own Museum.

Hide from our long-established food-poisoning tests so they can kill us more stealthily? Check.

Speaking of cute little buggers.

They really are impossibly cute in the flesh, so to speak.
