Enough of this crap, I want to hear directly from god

RE: Enough of this crap, I want to hear directly from god
At work.

Actually, in regards to Klorophyll's question about 'Naturally arising gears' there is a cricket or other sort of jumping insect that, in its neophyte stage, actually has evolved interlocking toothed growths. The better to control the power of its spring/jump. Such is the force of the 'Launch' that asymmetric jumping force would be rather detrimental to the creatures health.

Said growths are not evident in the adults. Presumably because of lack of moulting the exoskeleton hence there's no way to 'Repair' any wear/damage.

But, yes, in one creature so far humans have found 'Organic' gears.
