Discovery NotesThe dirt was powdery, it didn't clump that much. It was lightish brown in color. I found it underneath a pine tree, which shaded the dirt from the sun. I'm not to sure how deep I dug, but it was probably not even an inch. It was put into a sterile tube.
Naming NotesI named the phage 'Squiggles' because I thought it would be a "cute" name for something that just sort of floats around. I also picked the name because it is a character from an interactive live media piece I really like.
