This Bacteria Sings the Body Electric: Electron-eating Bacteria Video

I wanted to share with you some of the amazing mechanisms I'm discovering this week as I research the difference between "life" and inert matter. I'm also looking for the crossover points between life on our material earth and the ethereal Gnostic aeons. Little critters like these electron-eating bacteria may just be our "missing link"!

Scientists have recently discovered several varieties of bacteria that do not need to convert sugar into energy to power their cells. They are able to directly consume electrons from their environment. The bacteria are "called" by simply inserting an electric rod with a positive charge into soil or rock. The bacteria send out filaments to the electric source that conduct electrons back to the cell for fuel. No other food source is necessary.  Some bacteria eat rocks; some eat metal. Other bacteria are able to "breathe" out excess electrons in the opposite direction when they need to discharge.
