>Biology is fascinating in that it does not consist of one unifying force (nature) but a myriad of players, many at odds with one another, and many that have worked out interesting truces or even complex mutual relationships. Sounds like a great topic for an article!

I'm not sure if I've mentioned this on Bee-L before, but the PBS series "Nature" has the best hour of television I've ever seen.  "The Queen of Trees" is an illustration of exactly what Peter is referring to, using the sycamore fig tree and fig wasp as the main characters.  The cinematography is the best I have ever seen in a nature show.

There is nothing I can recommend that everyone on the planet should see more than this.
