Gigantic New SuperOrganism with 'Social Intelligence' is Devouring the anic

[lefty]

In 2000, Roy Cullimore, a microbial ecologist and Charles Pellegrino, scientist and author of Ghosts of the anic discovered that the anic --which sank in the Atlantic Ocean 97 years ago -- was being devoured by a monster microbial industrial complex of extremophiles as alien we might expect to find on Jupiter's ocean-bound Europa. What they discovered is the largest, strangest cooperative microorganism on Earth.

Scientists believe that this strange super-organism is using a common microbial language that could be either chemical or electrical -a phenomenon called "quorum sensing" by which whole communities "sense" each other's presence and activities aiding and abetting the organization, cooperation, and growth.

Further observations were made on the deterioration of the bow and stern sections of anic. From these observations it appears that the stern section of the ship is deteriorating at a faster rate than the bow section, and has been calculated to be about 40 yrs ahead of the forward section. This was determined due to the state of the steel at the stern, which was severely embrittled and distorted, providing better "habitat" for rusticle formation. Also, because food was stored on anic primarily in the stern section of the ship, it supplied the initial nutrients for rusticle growth. Lastly, surfaces within the hull that had been torn apart served as a staging ground for rusticle growth.

If you got rusticles, u need to scrub your balls better

I wish a superorganism would devour you.

A great DVD is Raise the anic…It makes you think, they could really bring that ship up if they wanted to I bet…

When that book was written, the Big T had not yet been found, and it seemed possible to do this. Then, they found that it had actually broken in half. Not so possible to raise that.
