   Alas, the Screen Room in Nottingham, England, beats the Cinema dei Piccoli by 42 seats.

   re: World’s Smallest Living Organism

   “The organisms in the mine drainage, which live in a pink slick on pools of acidic green water, obtain energy by oxidizing iron and in the process create sulfuric acid and dissolve pyrite to release more iron and sulfur. This self-sustaining process creates the acidic drainage that pollutes creeks and rivers, including those around the researchers’ study site, the Richmond Mine at Iron Mountain, Calif. The mine is one of the largest Superfund sites in the country.”

   LOL, the pollution from the country’s largest superfund site is the product of a natural biological processes…bit ironic me thinks. I think I’ll go protest the fact that the clean up effort is endangering this community of fascinating extremophiles I think they’re cute.

   Does anyone know why the babies were delivered so very early?

   Actually, the Missionary Independent Spiritual Church also claims to be the Worlds Smallest Church.

   From the website (http://www.missionary-independent.org/)
   “With an exterior dimension of 36 square feet Missionary Independent Spiritual Church is in a close race with a couple of other churches for the title of “World’s Smallest Church.” We may indeed be the church with the smallest amount of floor space — and we are certainly the ONLY tiny church of those in contention where services are held DAILY — that is, we are a fully functional CHURCH and not a mere ‘chapel.’”

   The “World’s Smallest Church” listed by the web-based Roadside America database at http://www.roadsideamerica.com/set/church.html is Cross Island Chapel in Oneida, New York, located on an island in the middle of a pond and only “open occasionally” and “reachable only by boat.”

   “Cross Island Chapel is listed as having a “floor area” (not exterior dimensions) of 51 inches by 81 inches, for a total of 4,131 square inches (28.6875 square feet) of floor space.

   Missionary Independent Spiritual Church, on the other hand, has a floor area of 64 inches by 64 inches, for a total of 4,096 square inches (28.4444 square feet) of floor space.

   Missionary Independent Spiritual Church is both 35 square inches smaller internally than Cross Island Chapel, it is also — unlike Cross Island Chapel — a fully functional church that is open to the public 7 days a week, where spiritual services are held DAILY.”

   I love Thumbelina, the littlest horse. How cute is she?!

   I think the screen room doesn’t operate full time as a movie theater, hence it wasn’t considered as the world’s smallest.

   You have a valid point there, subbes.

    Re: World’s smallest baby to survive.

    8.6 oz baby is a weight, as in just over half a pound.
    12 oz can of soda is a volume, as in 8 fl. oz in a cup.
    The comparison in the description is like saying a yard stick is faster than a human since it has three feet.

    Wanna see that tiny man play the tiny violin, riding on the tiny horse with the 4″ chihuahua to the teensy church.

    I am the pastor of Missionary Independent Spiritual Church — and, like Subbes said above — our church is not only smaller than the one in New York, we hold candle and prayer services on the premises daily. Wake up, Roadside America! The idols of old have fallen and the World’s Smallest Church is now in Forestville, California! Go to http://www.missionary-independent.org and see for yourself. cat yronwode
