Spider Web Fabric

Thanks for the interesting article.

I always thought there was something crooked about the professional tennis industry: Now I know they have rackets.

I did have some good friends years ago, who regularly arrived at our place every year, generally wearing white, the bridal colour.

Many of these friends discovered at close hand, the qualities of this variety of silk.

The strength of the silk was generally absolute, and my friends did not ever seem to return, although close kin later arrived, all dressed in white as had their earlier relatives, only many of these in turn, discovered the strong silk, and never returned to tell the tale.

Here is a picture of a pair of my "missing friends".

Kind Regards.....

What happened to the transgenic goats that produced spider silk protein in their milk?

Using their hybrid goat/spider superpowers, they easily butted their way out of their enclosure and are now on the loose.

When last seen they were in New York City, somewhat awkwardly web-swinging from tall builings on strands eminating from their udders.

That's udderly ridiculous!
