  1. Re:Medical-grade....sugar. on Spoonful of Sugar Helps the Persistent Bacteria Go Down · · Score: 1

    I'm expecting a "new formula" for damn near every drug that could benefit from this...of course big pharma is going to claim they added "medical-grade" sugar, to justify the 200% price increase.

    Its not normal sugars, its amino-modified sugars. They are not absorbed in the gut these are a different molecule altogether.

  2. Read the article itself not just the summary! on Spoonful of Sugar Helps the Persistent Bacteria Go Down · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Can people please read the article before making inane comments, we are talking about aminoglycosides here not glucose, fructose or sucrose. This is a amino-modified sugar that are not absorbed in the gut. They have been around for a long time but until now they had not been used in conjunction with specific metabolites. So this has nothing to do with diabetics or blood sugar.

    Nope just constantly shocked by the depths to which they will sink.

    True but most are in denial, they think its the ramblings of embittered journalists and failed polititians.

  5. Rubbish on Fox News Brings Video Game Violence Debate To a New Low · · Score: 5, Informative

    The FBI's stats actually show rape is down yet people dont take the time to verify things anymore. News reporters are meant to verify and inform not spread idle gossip and misinformation.

  6. Always present... on Portables Without Cameras? · · Score: 1

    The problem is that companies see a camera, no matter how basic, as a selling point that is easy to impliment. As shown by the dated camera added on to the iphone. Its a cheap and easy feature that most people look for in some incaranation on their phones. Its not their fault its the way people are they always want everything , it doesnt matter if its sub par as long as its there.

  7. The power is yours! on What To Do With All of My Gadget Chargers? · · Score: 1

    Since they draw little power you could chain two power strips together to save on plug space
