In that case it needs to be a good one: make _sure_ it mentions
the _two_ flagella--I'd hate to shortchange any poster to this
newsgroup, especially those who've razed the level of wit and
invective lately--and the way the flagella appear to thrash out
of synch, one in a groove and the other spirally. The confusion
is only apparent, not real: it aids their microscopic filter
feeding. But the lasting impression is still of a lot of blind,
pointless thrashing about.

Understanding is probably not a function of the protozoan world,
though James Blish once suggested otherwise ("the seedling stars").

But I firmly believe every critter has its value or utility,
though in some cases I'm damned if I can work out what that value
or utility might be.

Come to think of it, as we're dealing with waterborne critters
here, perhaps their utility is a ford...
