This is excellent news! Maybe now we can start cleaning up the earth. Maybe it could eat radioactive waste, or maybe we will find a bacteria that will eat radioactive waste. THis is great!

Let's just hope it doesn't mutate and creates an appetite for human flesh. If it can digest toxic snacks, surely we'll be a nice dessert.

This discovery could be one of the greatest ever, if it is true? Things like Chinobyl will not last for decades anymore......

But true, it would be a problem if it started eating human flesh, or worse, matter, so it would eat away our buildings and soon everything. |

That was a cool article. I guess it will always amaze me how nature will adapt to whatever we dish out.
