As a microbiologist myself (with obsolete degree from 1950), Im curious about the almost infinite capacity of a culture to contain an almost infinite variety of organisms capable of metabolizing practically anything. A bibliography of references would do, or the name(s) of people working in this area. --- Maximus-CBCS v1.00 * Origin: Nanaimo Schools BBS (1:351/198) -- Seymour Trieger - via IMEx node 89:681/1 Seymour.Trieger@f198.n351.z1.onebdos.UUCP
