I know! <waves hand> <grin> They're probably in the form of spores, which have to be tough enough to survive drying out, temperature swings, and, presumably, inhospitable pH environments. Probably the reason many of those intestinal organisms became human symbiotes is because they made spores that could survive in the environment and be consumed with food.
