    @samuelk: No kidding. Nature is fucking disGUSTing. Poison sacks, bacteria filled bile spit, fungus that grows in your body, creepy things that stick to walls.

    So gross. Bring on a world of clean, clean robots.

    I've seen these guys before, never heard of the secreted toxin. Also they have been put into orbit at least four times for research on the effects of microgravity on, umm... newtness.

    @Roklimber: It's Newtonian Physics! Not Mechanics. Newts make terrible mechanics; they have sticky fingers.
