Once upon a time, (on Mon, 7 Jun 1999 06:12:13 GMT, to be precise!), Terry K

A valid point.
Along the lines of they being essential to all life was what
I had trouble with. The film, the book by Terry Brooks,
nothing I have encountered so far go into any great detail
as to their contribution. (Of note, however, is in the book
"The Making of The Phantom Menace," they are described as a
type of bacteria.
All living cells, both plant and animal,
have common components, but don't remember enough biology/
zoology to remember if they are "essential."
