Scientists have discovered parasites that colonize mamalian brains and can alter behavior in rats and mice (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toxoplasma_gondii). Interestingly, Toxoplasma gondii has also been shown to inhabit humans.
Sweet George! I think I know what Dubya has!

I agree, that might be Penicillium. Pretty common on old fruit. Rhizopus/Mucor are also quite common.

This is not uncommon. For instance, some parasitic Nematomorphs that parasitize insects, induce a specific behaviour - they make their host move to water, where they drown, which enables the parantes to release eggs/larvae to the water environment.

Has anyone got any papers on the way F affects one's body?

Do you think one could centrifuge the sediment in Percoll/Ficoll to separate organic (fixed animals and detritus) and inorganic stuff (silt, sand...)?
I know there are some commercial products out there that match organics density, but I'm contemplating of Percoll/Ficoll use in this matter.

What do you guys have to say about this one?
Has any one read the reference? I'm sure we have som notable environmental scientists here...

Pleura has two "folds", visceralis (also called pulmonalis) and parietalis (the outer one), with fluid in between that assists in respiratory action we call breathing. Pleura covers only the latera, dorsal and ventral (side, back and belly) side, but not the side where lung and mediastinum meet.

Well, it takes a lot of environment destruction to make lab equipment, and cars for the scientists to drive to work. Besides, it's not only the muscles we use in cows.

I've learned that people who segregate humans from animals have almost no education (formal or otherwise) in biology and like posters before me noted, think of this matter philosphically. Which they are totally entitled, but that won't change a thing.

Found this one. I don't know how reliable the source is (I dislike articles that don't cite references). But perhaps there's some truth to it. Can anyone share any more info?
