Anti-HIV Virus Developed
liam193 writes "Wired News is reporting that Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory may have developed a virus that fights the HIV virus. According to the article, 'It took Adam Arkin and David Schaffer just $200,000 and a grad student to develop a potential treatment for AIDS. And that scares them.'"
Where can I get signed up to be "infected" and singlehandedly propagate the cure to the world's population?

Who's going to develop a virus to kill the virus that kills the HIV virus?
When things get complex, multiply by the complex conjugate.
It took Adam Arkin and David Schaffer just $200,000 and a grad student to develop a potential treatment for AIDS.
Did they USE $200,000 and a grad student, or did they EXPEND $200,000 and a grad student? An important distinction, especially from the grad student's perspective.

Adjusted for inflation back to 100000 B.C., the wheel cost $750 billion to develop.
He was the Bill Ug of his day.
Since no animal testing was mentioned, I would like to extend my condolences to the grad student's family. It may seem like a great sacrifice, but just think of all the data gathered from the autopsy.

I neither want larger breasts or for my SO to devlop a penis of ANY size.
Yeah, a computer with a penis would be rather silly.
Anyone interested in the original HIV genome (it's like sourcecode) can find it here.
Sweet- open source genomes! Do they accept patches? I really want to write a 1337 alpha-channel-transparency feature for HIV. HIV has a big install base, but I think it would be bigger if it was prettier to look at. Also, some videoconferencing support would rock.

It's GNU/HIV
Let's make a difference
Actually, the clitoris corresponds to the embryonic tissue that becomes the head of the penis on a man. The tissue destined to make up the labia minor, labia major, and vaginal canal on a woman becomes, on a man, the shaft of the penis.
On a side note, I told my wife last night, "honey, I can't have just one pussy for the rest of my life! I need more pussy than that," and she said, "Hey, if you were a little bigger, you'd have more pussy right here!"
So I looked into it, and the average pussy is eight inches deep, while the average penis is only six inches long. That means that two inches of pussy are wasted, on average, with every coital thrust. The average sex act lasts three minutes, with 30 thrusts per minute, adding up to 180 inches of wasted pussy per sex act, which happens on average three times per week. Multiply that by 52 weeks, and divide by the number of inches in a mile (63,360) and we find that there is nearly half a mile of wasted pussy per woman per year! Figuring approximately 100 million American women of legal age, that means, as a country, we are wasting around half a million miles of pussy every year, while some men here go without!
I call on all true patriotic American men and women to do something about this travesty.

Sorry to hear about your radical humorectomy. I hear they have developed an artificial funny-bone to replace what you have apparently lost.
Oh wait, I'm sorry, was it the overuse of the word 'pussy?' Pussy pussy pussy! Which is more pussy than you'll ever see, with a sense of humor like that.
