I must have missed the part in that article where Fleming went to the North Pole and got rust-eating microbes.
Remember --- they were just discovered --- were they not?
How did Fleming get them?
"Microbes aren't big and impressive and they benefit us in ways that aren't immediately obvious without some education..."
"No, they don't Naraoia --- unless you're talking about some other microbes."
I think I can attest to the fact --- even in my limited knowledge of microbes (okay, my lack of knowledge of microbes) --- that rust-eating microbes at the North Pole do not benefit me at all. I'd venture to say they don't you, either --- as they were just recently discovered.
So basically, your argument was "Silly scientists for being excited over rust-eating molecules, they won't benefit me. Unless it turns out that they do. But even though I know nothing about microorganisms, I know these rust-eating ones won't!"
