Thanks for the honest input. Again, it's nice talking to people who respond nicely.
I did have another thought though while I was away from the computer today:
Would it be easier to guide reactions at lower temperatures? I forget the enitre thought process that lead to this idea, but thats the conclusion of it.
Any help working it back into coherenace would be appreciated.
It's not necessarily easier to control things at lower temperatures. Some necessary reactions just may not occur. That's why seeds lie dormant in the winter.
I have suggested to some Concerned People that they could grow their cultures at higher temperatures to get a bit of a speedup. They were already doing so.
There is a range of temperatures for which things proceed. Most living things survive over a large range of temperature. Some are more fragile than others.
