surviving re-entry.

i really wasn't sure where to put this, and didn't come up with anything during a search.

anyhow, i remember reading years ago somewhere, that mushroom spores are the only living thing that can survive re-entry threw the atmosphere and grow again.
is there any truth to this?
is there anything else that can survive the heat?
i was wondering, if the mushroom spore thing is true, then maybe something like a giardia cyst could also survive.
links and info, or just, 'your a nutjob', are appreciated.

Shouldn't that be "YOU"RE a nutjob."?
