Ah, to think one tiny *ghoti* can build such a thing! It is like compounding interest in a savings account, I suppose—a little bit added by each polyp, faithfully, over generations. But I must say, from this boat, it seems impossible for such small things to make this... unless they are all working to the same ledger. My two mango trees, planted the same day, one is strong and one is weak. The stronger one had a termite colony working together at its roots for years. That is the real power—not the single polyp, but the unbroken, silent agreement to build.
