I thought everybody needed to know this, but it didn't warrant its own thread.
I came across it following up on an article about the Y chromosome possibly disappearing in humans in time.

In this Ant species every egg is fertile - good thing it doesn't work that way in humans.

What are the minimum and maximum number of chromosomes?
• The record for minimum number of chromosomes belongs to a subspecies of the ant Myrmecia pilosula, in which females have a single pair of chromosomes. This species reproduces by a process called haplodiploidy, in which fertilized eggs (diploid) become females, while unfertilized eggs (haploid) develop into males. Hence, the males of this group of ants have, in each of their cells, a single chromosome.
• The record for maximum number of chromosomes is found in found in the fern family. Polyploidy is a common conduction in plants, but seemingly taken to its limits in the Ophioglossum reticulatum. This fern has roughly 630 pairs of chromosomes or 1260 chromosomes per cell. The fact that these cells can accurately segregate these enormous numbers of chromosomes during mitosis is truly remarkable.

I too heard about this Pysber, although the expected 5,000,000 years it may take didn't bother me quite so much.

Does this coincide with the increase in the number of homosexuals in the world

(not that there's anything wrong with that)

When is the sun due to blow up and destroy all life? Is that before or after that 5 million year period?

Wasn't throwing stones at anyone - but someone has probably done research on it somewhere - gay men have a tendency to be more feminine - is this a result of a weak Y chromosome or an above average amount of female hormone in their bodies?

I never said anything was wrong with it so don't put words in my mouth

[HH3]

If you have a blood test, do they make you come in to discuss the results even if its all good?

Was told they cant discuss it on the phone. Does that mean its more likely to be bad?

@psyber

[Squids]

They aren't allowed to tell you over the phone.

[HH3]

Cool...thats what I thought.

Makes you worry a bit though.

So there are more gay men around than ever before and gay men are more feminine... maybe a little bit ignorant there FC

[Ron Burgundy]

How do you make a hormone?

[Smashed Crab]

How do you make a hormone?

Kick her in the teeth and don't pay her.

@psyber

Can only be bad news I have one every 6 months the receptionist says all OK when good, or come in and have a chat to the Doc when it is bad.

Maybe Duromine showed up in the test!

[scoob]

I understood is completely Booney - Just thought it was quite ignorant and posted as such.
