Rogue DNA indeed ...Its virus that infects bacteria. It is a free living organism, the simplest form of life known. And I love them to bits. (and yes I was once involved in nuturing them)

Aah, yes...Just read up on them (well, T2 Phages anyway) - They're a type of virus then? So not technically alive? Discuss. Or not...
