Perhaps it was the ameobas that invented the inprobability drive, but then they were smashed by a tea cup.

  Yeah, but how do we know amoebas weren't actually some highly intelligent leaf form that lost some intergalactic battle and were zapped into the primordial ooze by some lucky ray gun jocky? 

   

  Done any hitch hiking lately?

  Without at least some change over the millenia, which comes from Mother Nature (who, btw, is a hell of a lot more tenacious than I will ever be), we'd probably still be ameobas.  This, of course, would make it really tough to type.
