I recently posted on Sir David Attenborough, [1] touting ability to educate us regarding nature. You might have thought, “Well, anyone could give a lively talk on the blue whale, the largest creature to ever live on Earth.” Maybe so. But how many people have ever produced a spellbinding video on fungi? [2] In fact, try to name another other video that features any type of fungus. Have any of you ever before seen how slime molds survive in the wild? Attenborough and his team are often at their best when presenting species that seem mundane.
