Foxfire

[ChristopherSea]

Yes fogglethorpe, I know it isn't either of those forms; it's just a short form. I thought it would be interesting to compare internet cables/fibers to fungi mycelium. Foxfire is a bioluminescent fungi that grows and glows on decaying wood. It is also the name of a web browser of course (firefox that is). Hyphae are the growing fibers of fungi. Mushrooms are the differentiated fruiting bodies of fungi that can serve as sexual reproductive factories. You take the double entendre of Foxfire, mix it with the analogies of wires and hyphae; glow in the dark fungi with optical fibers and mushrooms with pubescence and you get this little poem that no one will appreciate. Thanks for giving it a look! Cheers/Chris
