An “Iron breathing” bacteria that gives off iron ions as a byproduct of respiration using carbohydrates.
This kinda reminds me of “Mr. Fusion” from Back to the Future where they toss a can of pop into the car and it powers up.
About the title of this post, isn’t that quite old news?

About the title of this post, isn’t that quite old news?
Possible answer:
There are no stupid questions, only stupid people
I’m never sure who to contact for permission to put old news on off topic thread.

I thought this was new… All the articles I’ve read were published within the past 3 days.
But three days??! That story is SOOOOO three days ago! I think it’ll be news for quite some time…Just because it wasn’t announced 30 seconds ago that doesn’t disqualify it from being current.
It was news to me. And I do my best to stay informed for the most part. Guess I am too caught up in politics. %| Anyway, I found it interesting.
What happens if this bacteria enters some’s body and converts carbs into electricity inside of them. :o
I didn’t mean it was forbidden to post old news, I just pointed out it to RipSting, as I found that he seemed to think this was a New Thing 
I do remember to have read some article years ago about making organic computers (or something like that), and in it was mentioned electricity producing bacteria.
There WERE electric-producing bacteria discovered a few years back. However, if you read the article, it said that these were less than 2% efficient (compared to the new ones which are about 83%), and they required some sort of catalyst for them to work. These new bacteria were just discovered.
:o OOOOOOOUCHHHHHH!!! :o
Oh, okay. I stand corrected then
