In the old days, sponges only came from the
sea. For millennia, brave divers risked life and limb to bring them 
back to the surface. In the age of plastic, however, you don't have 
to expose yourself to danger to acquire one. As a matter of fact, 
most modern artificial sponges improve on the design from nature in 
several ways. In entertaining episodes our Chemical Reporter answers 
questions of our Podcast listeners on Chemistry in our everyday life.
