Morse Code Used by Human Cells?

Roland Piquepaille writes "Researchers from several universities and drug companies in the U.K. have discovered that our cells are using Morse-like signals to switch genes on and off. The Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) write that this discovery may have major implications for the pharmaceutical industry. Better and more efficient drugs would only deliver the signals to our cells that will activate a desired behavior. Sounds like science fiction? Read more for other details, references and pictures."

    I heard that he is in a Satanic cult and that they sacrifice babies to the Devil. It used to be virgins but they got tired of killing each other.

    They ran out of virgins? Fuck that, Slashdot is FULL of them! More than enough to sicken Satan himself! Buncha fat, bloated, white, cheetos-stained bodies wearing Linux t-shirts and Spiderman underoos playing The Sims 2 and cramming their mouths with mom's Mac 'N Cheese while they sit in their basements...

    Off-topic whatever. This must be said. Roland Piquepaille is gaming /. and constantly plagiarising actual journalists. He is going to wind up getting sued if he keeps it up. Get the word out there and maybe Slashdot editors will take notice: Roland Piquepaille is the worst kind of human trash and we don't need anymore of that here at /. . Please, discuss.
