For some reason, that sounds strangely erotic!

Really amazing. I've never seen anything like this, anywhere: An actual, visible shift from unisexual to sexual. Of course, this falls within Theory Of Evolution perfectly. Score one for Darwin!

While bizarre, it's actually kind of interesting. Think about it. Scientists have now actually observed a movement from unisexual to sexual reproduction, thus removing one of the largest (and stupidest) fundamentalist claims.

To quote 3rd Impact, as listed above, "That is the strangest thing I've read all day...

"

WTF?

Damn it. Now worms are getting more than me.

Put that in your pipe and smoke it, fundies!

That's so cool, worms evolving from unisexual reproduction. However, it is not erotic.

Ok, so radiation makes worms horny?

That gives that blackhole episode of Enterprise a bit more credit as far as scientific accuracy goes.. hah! Go figure, trek really DOES predict things.

This has GOT to be a bad joke...

Isn't that where the radiation near a black hole made some of the crew horny?

Um, I dunno whether or not this should be moved into SLAM...

Can somebody help me whack the big sledgehammer of knowledge into this Dreamer gimp over there now?

Very interesting. I wonder if anyone has looked at some of the other Soviet nuclear disaster areas like the Mayak complex at Chelyabinsk, the worlds most contaminated location. The worms in those areas have been experiencing higher rad levels for three decades longer.

I remember having the oddest convo with hemlock a few months ago. it was about frogs growing extra genatilia through a chemical. I said we should put it in a local water supply - imagine the porno movies that could be made.

I may still have that convo.

I'd give up on those worms, they're probably 500 metres long and use radioactive fire-breath to toast villagers for food.

Good. Then please delete that convo since I doubt it will make a person any saner.

You wouldn't want the steak in question though, the cows are either dieing from radioactive fire breath from Siberian snowworms or from accumulated radiation poisoning combine with cancer

The truly amazing thing is, they are more resiliant to radiation, as what the article is claiming. Imagine that, immunity to radiation.
