    What an interesting story! We humans often think we have the whole planet for ourselves, and here is a wonderful example of other life forms creating a worldwide network, a community, even across many miles.

    No kidding. And we're just now discovering this ant colony. Think of what else we might be missing that's right under our noses.

    MrOrange, Great article and very interesting, yet scary! Ants nurture and cooperate with each other, unlike we humans, and research shows ants have been evolving on this planet from more than 100 million years, far longer than the paltry 2-5 million years for us hominids. I have flashbacks to those old movies with the giant ants. Move over, Planet of the Apes, and make way for Planet of the Ants.
