Smallest primate found in the sea!!

This is really weird. DNA samples taken from the sea show signatures (the Alu elements) of primates. This is, of course, a joke.

Speaking of weird science, my good friend Chien-Chung Chang in Taiwan just sent me his idea for a short sci-fi story. He described a scenario in which humans start to integrate their genome into a much larger alien life-form in order to survive, just like the mitochondria.

By the way, the smallest primate I believe is the pygmy mouse lemur. I think they are super cute.
