Actually, the latest information I have (Dec. 98) is that they have studies
that prove one of those isn't involved at all. Can't remember which species
was mentioned in this particular conversation, although I think it's the one
that converts nitrites. The species they found sounded something like
spirulina, Nitrospirogyra or something like that.
Really have to do something about this memory of mine <G>.
