Thanks for the info on engineering :-) Nature is amazing maybe man should take more notice from it rather than try and improve it.

Science does learn from what is already there - but apparently only by observing using the right technology, and applying the correct mathematical formulae! Fascinating post, Cherie.

Nature solved many problems for itself before mankind ever existed. Adapt, solve and survive. I was looking at my 'sprout tree' the other day and was fascinated by the spiral nature of its growth. There were five spirals which repeated over 15". To us engineers this is known as:- "Fifteen inch pitch, five start thread". But nature got the first.
