Indeed I looked up Margulis when you mentioned her to me about a year ago, and have some familiarity with her work now (so thank you).
BTW, that nudge of yours helped me discover Jennifer, and as you know I've done a wonderful interview with her, and amplified her work (so thank you again).

I will read the article above, and reflect on the bacteria "giving us a nudge" idea. That's an interesting thought!
Sent along this reply from Jennifer Margulis's "Learning to Love Flowers", in response to a comment I made. I send this along because it cuts to the heart of Dr. Lynn Margulis work, "But especially the microbes!".
Her big thing was symbiogenesis which took main stream science many years to accept. At base for all of life and its evolution to today are the microbes. I hope when you have the time to read the books by Lynn Margulis ( with reverence) you will gain a panoramic view of life. She is some what redundant in some of her books, it always helped me see an aspect of the microcosmos I had missed.
Keep up the good work. See Jennifer's comment below.

I am glad my mother had such a profound influence on you, William. She was born with a love of nature and appreciation for all the creatures on earth, big and small. But especially the microbes!
Thanks wm
