Challenged in September 2010 to come up with interesting facts every day by one of my work colleagues, I've since entertained him and those near his desk with bits of information dredged from my brain. Some of my audience went on holiday and still wanted the facts so I started posting here, every day I do one of them, usually Monday through Friday, and the occasional post on the weekend. I post these facts here almost every day and you will find two posts on some days to make any missing days.

Today’s interesting fact has to do with Xenophyophores.
They are amoung the largest living single cells, reaching 10 cm in diameter.
They can be found in the deepest parts of the oceans and have been found as deep as 10,641 meters (6.6 miles).
