Did you at least get the flowers? ....... That I didn't send!

Glad you dug your way out, you look better than ever........ with parts I could use.
 
The Monty Python Black Death gag above brought to mind a fun fact. Some years ago genetics researchers were studying the genome of the common fruit fly, Drosophila Melanogaster. It has a small genome that simplifies pinpointing which gene controls which identifiable trait. High temperatures will kill the flies, but some individuals could stand heat that killed most of their cousins. When they pinpointed the gene that conferred this resistance trait they named it "INDY" as in I'm Not Dead Yet.

Who says lab scientists have no sense of humor?
