When the only source is the Mexican Gov't, you can be pretty sure it's BS. There's a reason you don't see any peer-reviewed articles in the sources.

[2] Mayan documentary to show ‘evidence’ of alien contact in ancient Mexico - TheGuardian.com

Biologists discover electric bacteria that eat pure electrons rather than sugar, redefining the tenacity of life!

"As you may recall from high school biology, almost every living organism consumes sugar to survive. When it gets right down to it, everything you eat is ultimately converted or digested into single molecules of glucose. Without going into the complexities of respiration and metabolism (ATP!), these sugars have excess electrons — and the oxygen you breathe in really wants those electrons. By ferrying electrons from sugar to oxygen, a flow of electrons — i.e.energy — is created, which is then used to carry out various vital tasks around your body (triggering electrons, beating your heart, etc.) These special bacteria, however, don’t need no poxy sugars — instead, they cut out the middleman and feed directly on electrons."

So, we can power our devices with bacteria? Hmm? A Mophie Bacteria Pack. Cool!
