Worm Sweat
Do Worms Sweat?
———- from Alexis Nelson of Ann Arbor, Michigan
Of course, they sweat. Worms provided me with my introduction to science. As a small child, I would crawl across the lawn at night in pursuit of these elusive invertebrates. Other children would use worms as fish bait, but my goals were exclusively scientific. I can’t remember my exact experiments today ? they’re a distant blur of low voltage shocks, pin pricks and lighter fluid ? but I can say conclusively that worms do sweat. That’s why worms are so clean. Sweat, of course, is the body’s attempt to flush dirt away and filthy starts when sweating stops. To maintain hermetic cleanliness, I recommend running in place at all times, while constantly drinking warm beer. Remember, cleanliness is next to godliness, godliness is next to science, and science, of course, is next to worms.
