"The story begins in the .. backyard in Starkville, Mississippi. Logan Moore, a Ph.D. student working with Associate Professor Matthew Ballinger at Mississippi State University, was collecting fruit flies for a research project."

Egon: I collect spores, molds, and fungus.

Great. Now hypochondriacs will have a whole new fear of wasps bursting forth from their bodies.

Well, that stings.

Iron Butterfly, currently touring as Wasp Larvae Host Flies, have released their much anticipated new video from their current release 'Horrifying Burst: Groovy Hits' called, "We can't understand a word we are saying either."

I may have an additional Horrifying Burst of a comment later. They opened for The Troggs.

I believe the Bible states in Ecclesiastes that there is nothing new under the sun - but I guess that does not include these biological things that occur indoors in a laboratory.
