[edit] Hagfish fiber

Hoax? Search in http://www.altavista.com for "hagfish fibre" and "hagfish fiber" shows nothing except Wikipedia echoes. I know some biology: talk of making fish slime into tough fiber is SILLY. Anthony Appleyard 20:51, 11 July 2005 (UTC)

Actually, it's not a hoax - I've read articles on hagfish slime before; it's a fascinating substance which, yes, has some horribly nasty vicious tough fibers permeating it. Don't think it's notable yet, though, so I vote delete - for now. DS 21:25, 11 July 2005 (UTC)

simply the knowledge of the uses of 'hagfish slime' would be useful. perhaps changing the presentation of the article so as to imply that the findings are few would do.
