Agreed. In 1989 Zemekis did Back to the Future II which showed life in 2015. They pretty much got nothing right.

You'd think that with all of the hype about how historically accurate the BTTF films are, they'd put a little work into it.

2001 was just a feel-good summer movie though.

It's a cool idea, but this is very far from actually being a thing.

I like the idea of using fungi for things other than food or medicine. I remember seeing some company producing these bio degradable elements for when you ship furniture, etc. Basically replacing styro-foam with these elements grown from fungus into various shapes.

No idea if anyone is actually using it now, but it's a genius idea.

PBS Eons - another fantastic PBS channel.
Everyone even somewhat interested in paleontology should check it out.
And to the people not interested in paleontology: Go **** yourselves.
