In Many ways we are like a fungus. we colonize the world ( our substrate ) and when it is completely colonized and there is no more room we will float away on our spores ( spaceships ) to new places to colonize. That is if the contams don't get us first. And just like 'Shrooms, the contams are just like us. We stop ourselves from achieving greatness. If we never learn our place in the environment we will perish and take everything with us.

Sorry for the philosophical sidetrack here,
We now return you to your regularly scheduled program!
