  1. Possibly.  There are tube worms living at the bottom of a trench in the Pacific where volcanic vents have the water superheated.  If a tube worm can live in that h**l hole, why not something else?


  2. Undoubtedly.

    An extremophile.

    "An extremophile is an organism that thrives in and may even require physically or geochemically extreme conditions that are detrimental to the majority of life on Earth." - Wikipedia

    Take a moment and look up extremophile in Wikipedia.  It's amazing the diversity of critters that live in environments that would immediately kill a human.
