Default Microbes in space: effect on weather?

Interesting piece in the FT mag this morning about the effect of
microbes at 8-15km above the earth. It refers to a paper in the
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences:

http://www.pnas.org/content/early/2013/01/22/1212089110

"Just having a small number of these micro-organisms around could
facilitate the formation of ice at these altitudes and attract
surrounding moisture."

Interesting too about how they get there.
