Anthony, you scare me. The Syd Barrett reference-- ever listened to Piper at the Gates of Dawn? Specifically "Flaming"? I don't know, I listen to Polyphonic, and the line "lying on an eiderdown" keeps floating to mind, unbidden....
I think it's more of a mitosis thingabob. Leave Syd Barrett alone in a nutrient-rich, moist, neutral-pH environment for a day, he starts dividing all over the place... and POOF... the place is lousy with crazy former psychedelic-rockers.
I got the joke, it was actually the bad pun that scared me. Please stop that. And now, you and Stephen? Well, to paraphrase... "I'm sorry, I understood there was to be no SCIENCE involved here?"

I never consciously thought it, but now that you say it . . .
But Syd Barrett, though? Maybe I don't know his work enough.
Not possible. Syd Barrett is asexual.
Maybe P-Spree are actually some form of mold, then?
Their lead singer certainly seems like a fun-gi.
(Ba-dum bum. Thanks, thanks everyone, how's your steak?)

Bizarre love-child of Coyne and Barrett... Barrett is asexual... molds and mushrooms reproduce asexually... Polyphonic Spree equals mold...

Was it the seeming non-sequitur, or just how freaking hilarious I am that scared you?
Are you sure Barrett doesn't bud like a spongue?

So would you say that we've effectively "blinded" you with science?
I wondered who would be first in with that one. SCIENCE!
