That is the scariest shit I have ever read.
Wikipedia's entry on the parasite is easier to read. But this still is pretty scary shit.

I love nature stuff about 'creepy cr5awlies' cos it is, literally, another world.
Lions and stuff you can see at a safari park.
THIS is totally alien to us

This gave me the creeping horrors when I read about it in an X-files book I got years ago. The ants are particularly odd, as they normall spend their entire life on the forest floor, and don't really have a concept of 'up' - The fungus makes them climb.
My scalp-s itching just thinking about it.

I'm not an ant
But that almost gave me teh fear.
Let's hope that never falls into the hands of terrorists - ID cards for every ant is a small price to pay for security.
