"Mandy the presumed Cribraria seems to be cool too ! How do you do to determine the species?"

"Hi Ian, Are you a researcher ? If so, from which university?I'm very curious about the blobs you have. Where does your "normal" blob and your daywalker come from ? (as far as you can know). I am a myrmecologist, I have done research…"

"Take home message - it might be worth feeding viagra to physarum...."

"Daywalker is P.polycephalum ( the only non physarum I distribute is Mandy the presumed cribraria ). I don't know if it's 'blind' ( ie can't detect light ) or sporulation defective - experiment to be set up tonight ( time…"

"Yes, I would like to know more about your experiences on breeding. In addition read on the forum improves my English. "

"I rear strains now and then from spores, Daywalker was just one that cropped up with a noticeably different trait. I have a hybrid ( presumed hybrid anyway - I haven't done genetics on it ) between the Hokkaido ( Japan ) strain and…"

"You are my hero. I have time, I can wait. I do not know X32-Daywalker but it will be very interesting to observe and do all the basic experiments without knowing the results.  Thank you so much"

"Just because these cultures came from labs in different countries it doesn't mean they originated in them - they've been around since the 70's and I don't think anyone knows where they came from but I have strains of Physarum…"

"I would like observing in time lapse their movements (classified by country) , and give them different recipes and watching if he likes exactly the same thing. See If he realizes the experiments differently according to the country ... I am not a…"

"We have a few strains on the go which you could have, how are you planning to compare them?"
