Interesting...however weird it may seem I don't think that's too far-fetched. After all there have been crazier theories ;)

I like it, thanks for sharing!

What a wonderful menagerie! Who would believe that such as register lay buried in the strata? To open the leaves, to unroll the papyrus, has been an intensely interesting though difficult work, having all the excitement and marvelous development of a romance. And yet the volume is only partly read. Many a new page I fancy will yet be opened. -- Edward Hitchcock, 1858

Neat article... poison is a relative term.... for instance if you were an anerobic bacteria then oxygen is a poison......
