Professor Viterbi puffed up like an overripe seed pod, ready to shower his discovery all over the conference delegates in their seats.
“We have discovered a species with left handed DNA. This means life on Earth started not just once, but two or more times.”
The delegates’ jaws dropped; mouths like pitcher plants waiting for further details to fall in.
“This organism has been in front of our noses all the time. The common toenail fungus.”
Half the delegates gave Professor Viterbi a standing ovation. The other half removed their shoes and socks, and stared at their toes in wonder.
