August 30, 2009 — Our airways are lined with cells that have beating oars called motile cilia. Like galley slaves on a Roman ship, they beat in coordinated waves, setting up currents that propel dust and foreign matter out toward the mouth. Scientists just found out another amazing capability of these motile cilia...

Ping!
No one can’t tell me there isn’t a God.
Thanks for the ping!
I've just got to use that for a pickup line.
Didn’t you get the memo? Something called ‘natural selection can do anything. Anything. (Never mind that natural selection only eliminates the unfit - it doesn’t _create_ the fit. That’s the job of mutations in evo. theory, and anyone who pays attention can see what _they_ do to our superbly designed genomes, not to mention the utter lack of evidence for them ever performing complex integration work in constructing sophisticated biological structures.)
Teleological evolution strikes again!
Yep, I forgot. Something can come from nothing. hahahaha
I thought this was another one of those ‘Bad Engrish’ threads...
“My hovercraft is full of eels.”
“Your throat has tasteful antennae”
Said by the same guy who asked: “what’s the frequency Kenneth” ???
Ramming Speed!
"RAMMING SPEEED!"

I think you just wrote that everyone can tell you there isn’t a God.
Where is the line forming?
DOCTOR: You see, taste buds run on grooves along the surfaces.
ELAINE: Can you let go of my tongue now?
DOCTOR: What?
ELAINE: Let go of my tongue!
DOCTOR: (Lets go) Oh, sorry.
ELAINE: Well, I should get going.. (The Doctor leans in for a kiss. Elaine stops him) What are you doing?
DOCTOR: I was going to kiss you good night.
ELAINE: A kiss? With the tongue? The glossa with the bumps and the papillae? ..Yech, I don’t think so.
“Tasteful Throat Antennae”
Not to mention it would make a great name for a band......
I once read that smoking eliminates these ciliae. Permanently.
Good news for those who are thinking about quitting:
“Remarkably though, smoking cessation can undo the damage to cilia rather quickly. In fact, the cilia begin to repair themselves and regenerate in number within only three days after quitting. It should be noted that coughing is a common side effect to this process and may last from a few days to several weeks. This is because the restored cilia are working overtime to remove impurities and mucous from the lungs.”
