NATURE FINDS A WAY

[RABicle]

This is a viral video for something. Are there any movies or video games coming out involving fighting slugs in sewers?

Video now has music http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncNpL0zZzn8

I seem to recall hearing there was a new Sewer Sam game in the works?

I saw this in Ghostbusters 2. It's the red mood slime.

Mystery solved.

DENVER - An underground mystery is over for the Crestview water system. In December, a robotic camera checking sewer lines for damage stumbled upon a green, slimy organism with tentacles that seemed to be alive.

"It looked like it was hiding from the light," water system worker Randy Ferguson said. And the tentacles seemed to be staying away from the water.

The discovery was made in a pipe near the intersection of 76th and Pecos.

Ferguson and his partner Mike Parker asked the Colorado Division of Wildlife to look into the creature, because in 20 years of sewer work, they had never seen anything like it before.

An aquatic specialist from the DOW confirmed that what the camera had discovered was actually a Bryozoan, a primitive life form that, as a species, is over 350 million years old.

The Bryozoans are collections of smaller organisms that filter food out of the water supply, and they are an extremely primitive "animal" life form.

Bryozoans aren't harmful, although they can occasionally clog water pipes.

For now, the Crestview water system isn't going to do anything about the animal in it's pipes.

I would still flood the sewer with gasoline and burn it all. except for one specimen... for scientific purposes.

no idea if the story is real. It is from 2008 and is written by a John Romero

edit: Has to be the wrong article as this creature is in NC, not Denver, CO.

Mystery NOT SOLVED.

The Last SEWER BLOB is not in captivity.  The GALAXY is not at peace.

I think this is just one of those "tiny camera inside a human/animal" videos that are done on medical patients sometimes. That's not a sewer.

Maybe one day it'll become an Elderly Mutant Ninja Turtle.
