  1. Re:Awesome idea, but.. on Yeast-Powered Fuel Cell Feeds On Human Blood · · Score: 5, Informative

    Saccharomyces cerevisiae, or brewer's yeast, which is what they are using doesn't cause yeast infections. You are thinking of the pathogenic strain Candida albicans.

  2. Re:If its not april Fools on Yeast-Powered Fuel Cell Feeds On Human Blood · · Score: 3, Informative

    The yeast they are talking about here is not Candida albicans which is the strain that causes yeast infection. In this they are most likely talking about Saccharomyces cerevisiae which is just ordinary brewers yeast and is harmless. Do you really think they would be dumb enough to stick a known pathogen in someone's body?

    I think we all thank you for not spewing more Rush Limbaugh dittohead bullshit.

    Sure, there is nothing wrong with humor but none of these April Fools Day "jokes" have been funny.

    So I have this bridge in Arizona. It's a really hot buy, but the last customer fell through.

    Sorry, that was my fault. I wired the money to the guy so he could get his gold out of Nigeria to buy your bridge, but the transfer never made it to him.

    Really? You mean a incongruent totally event that has a story posted about it on April Fools Day isn't real? I bow down to your amazing cranial abilities, Sherlock, cause I'm sure no one else would have figured it out if not for you.

    Until I read this post, I didn't get that it was a joke,

    So you didn't get that a line in a story that is clearly an April Fools joke is a joke? Were you born with no sense of humor or did you have it removed later in life?

    There was a joke in this? It was pretty lame.

    Let me guess, it was only about "northern aggression", right? Historical revisionism, lol.

    Did you even read the study to figure out if they established a causal link or are you just out of hand dismissing it?

  12. Re:Anyone Still Have Spam? on Spam Back Up To 94% of All Email · · Score: 5, Insightful

    That you aren't actually receiving the spam doesn't mean it's not still being sent to your address. The fact that your ISP or Google or anyone else is having to spend a huge amount of resources to combat all this spam is the problem.
