Description
There is some really odd vegetation on the planet Ganymede 3. They're a silicon based life form that replicates itself like crystals which are self seeding. Loosely based on speculations by John Lily who, after being in a water isolation tank in total darkness for several hours, had visions of Silicon based beings who were seeking to convert the galaxy into a solid state reality.Guess when you're in a tank of water anything seems real( LOL!!!!) Enjoy!

and so we have Silicon Valley, and so many gadgets based on silicon chips .. so maybe John Lily isn't so far off with his visions, maybe we are headed to being silicon based beings, what with silicon chips implanted here... and there... in our limbs, in our brains ... hmmmmm.
