We will be assimilated BUMP!
>> In the future, instead of live bacteria, the researchers suggest using dead ones to avoid the potential biohazards living microbes pose. These dead "ghosts," as the scientists dub them, can still glide if their motors are given the right organic compounds.
I thought this was really cool... powered by the living dead. :)
BIG DEAL !
No Bump . . .
Nothing intelligently designed here, therefore no science. Move along please.
They could have a microscopic Iditarod race using bacteria-sleds across a test tube.

Hardly - when I peddle my bicycle I don't declare my bicycle alive, so we have micorbes 'peddling' a rotor, the rotor is just as alive as my bicycle.
Otherwise, I suppose this is interesting as far as it goes.
Soon they will combine to form organic mecha suits, enabling their wearers to become super samurai......
