Life Inside a Cell

Roland Piquepaille writes "Harvard University has decided to use animations as a tool to enhance the performance of its students in biology. And it selected XVIVO's animation studio to take Harvard University students on a 3D journey. Among other realizations, the company delivered an eight minute animation titled 'The Inner Life of the Cell,' which was presented at Siggraph 2006 in a condensed form. This extraordinary animation explores 'the mechanisms that allow a white blood cell to sense its surroundings and respond to an external stimulus.' Harvard University expects a performance improvement of its biology students of almost 30% by using such visualization tools."

We can vote on posters. It would be nice to vote on both publishers and editors and filter out that way. The same reasons and rules can be used that already exist. That is unless they think that this whole voting system won't work.

Here's some C++ pseudocode:

if (story->author == "Roland Piquepaille" || search(story->links, "http://www.primidi.com/")) {
delete story;
blocksubmissionsfrom (story->author.ip);
return 0;
}

I kid, I kid.

Yea, and lately anyone that bitches about his submissions gets modded down even though we can't filter it. Kinda sad that it's OK for him to constantly spam Slashdot, but it's not OK for users here to complain or question it. Get me for offtopic, it's ok.
