Great answer, but one quick correction. They are not breathing (using lungs) until they hatch, however they are respiring. I have to confess my ignorance on the exact mechanism, but the membranes seem to allow for the O2-CO2 gas exchange to the blood.

They took a stand back then for the right to free speech.
Free speech is ugly.
Freedom is ugly when people disagree.
That's why the right to free speech so often seems self-contradictory, at times hurtful.
It takes a lot of guts in the belief that it is ultimately for the best of all people in the long run.
Thanks for your response.

Thanks, Mist. I looked them up on Wikipedia because I'm not very familiar.
It seems they are pretty entrenched as a pro-Israel group and do not even pretend to be apolitical. Is this a fair appraisal?

About time, ACLU.
Since SCOTUS declared that money equals speech, it is an easy argument to make that anti-boycott laws violate the 1st Amendment.

You're right! Not very practical for wiping down surfaces. Tough lil' bastards.

To add to that, there are bacteria Enterococcus faecium, that are not susceptible to alcohol.

thank you felis. Redditors have nothing but disdain for the correct noun when they post photos.
