#todayIlearned that not only is there an Ice-9, we're actually up to Ice-21 now. Fortunately they exist only at weird combinations of temp and pressure. The ice in our drinks and sinking our ships is actually the rarest. #ice9 #ice #til #youtube #video #antonpetrov

A ‘Second Tree of Life’ Could Wreak Havoc, Scientists Warn Research on so-called mirror cells, which defy fundamental properties of living organisms, should be prohibited as too dangerous, biologists said.

It's like Vonnegut's #Ice9, but in biology. An unstoppable progression that would take over the global ecosystem. Or like #nanobot #GrayGoo. #EcologicalCollapse #MirrorLife
