Aren't Lichens BRILLIANT...
Isn't Lichen the plural of Lichen?
And Hello Earthworm, welcome back.

Hello Froman.. Just had a convo in the office about Lichens... Much google searching ensued and we found MILLIONS of uses for Lichen...

What's a lichen? is it those plant-type things; like moss?
Posted by
earthworm, 10:45, 26th January 2004:

They are like little trees

They found them on Mars

earthworm, 10:47, 26th January 2004:
no - on hornby train sets... parading as trees... (not really - the power of suggestion)
I rather doubt they found any on mars.
Posted by
Liandle, 10:49, 26th January 2004:
They so did. Look it up.

earthworm, 10:49, 26th January 2004:
nah - who would have put them up there?
Posted by
Liandle, 10:50, 26th January 2004:
They grow from spores I think

earthworm, 10:52, 26th January 2004:
yeah - but what would female indians be doing up there?

Liandle, 10:54, 26th January 2004:
Not Squaws you eejit. Spores.

earthworm, 10:56, 26th January 2004:
haha...
No really... Lichen up on Mars?
Thast weird... I thought they only grew on trees and walls...
Post me a link. I think there would have been a BIT more of an uproar if they had found life on Mars.

Liandle, 10:58, 26th January 2004:
They found some there. Lichen can grow anywhere. They just need a little bit of water and they sprout. I think there was life on Mars once. I think I remember it. I think I come from there.

earthworm, 11:09, 26th January 2004:
lol - no probs...
a quick google search and there it was...
Maybe instead of NASA spending squillions of dollars on space exploration, they should just look for answers on Google... Would be MUCH easier...
Yes well done, you have take an article about how mars could be terraformed completely out of context. Go to the back of the class.
Here's an article about cows on mars. Why aren't we reading about that in the fucking Daily Mail eh?

Turns out Mars is packing WMD's no wonder Dubya wants to go there so badly.
