>There will be some anaerobes in your tea. When you shut off the air and
"bottle" the tea, you are creating and environment perfect for these
anaerobes. They will start growing and will use anything for food they can
find. This means that sleeping aerobes become cattle for the anaerobic
coyotes.

I appreciate the responses (both facts and humor ;) tho I'm not sure how
that bear crept in...
and I didn't realise the above two things from Tom's post
1 that there could still be bad bugs in the tea
2 that bad bugs were so bad (now I've got images of them clearing out all
the sleeping good guys!) - which by the way I have tossed the idea out
already

And Chris reminded me to keep diversity in mind!
It sure is a viscous world without O2!
