off topic HEXTEND <<One type of North American frog can partially freeze its body while it shuts down during the winter months.>> Several years ago there was a Scientific American article about these frogs - they freeze SOLID during the winter - which kills most organisms due to cell rupture (water expands when it freezes and blows apart the cell). Looks like somebody found a practical use for the info. However, how much revenue can be derived from this technology in the NEAR TERM?
