Ocean Vent Microbe Likes It VERY Hot
- "Some may like it hot, but nothing likes it hotter than a weird microbe known as Strain 121. The one-celled organism, captured from a magma vent at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, can survive 266 degrees Fahrenheit (130 degrees Celsius), a temperature no other known life form can tolerate." - excerpt from Environmental News Network at http://www.enn.com/news/2003-08-15/s_7558.asp
