Sticky feet - Very interesting

28-09-06, 11:23 AM

I dunno how many of you have seen this.

BBC NEWS | Science/Nature | Sticky feet help tarantulas climb

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/5386524.stm

BBC, News, BBC News, news online, world, uk, international, foreign, british, online, service

If anyone with a genuine interest in this would like to see
the full report I have managed to get a copy of it (.PDF format)
from Dr. Stanislav Gorb from the Evolutionary Biomaterials Group
at the Max-Planck-Institute in Stuttgart. Dr. Gorb has kindly
given me his permission to share this and if anyone has any
constructive feedback I'll pass it on to him.

Please send me a message with your email address and I'll forward
it to you by return.

that is interesting I wouldnt mind a look at the full report

The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

The full report would probably be a bit over my head.
But the bbc article is very interesting indeed.
Thanks a lot for posting this one.
