Jeffe Otte, begging maintains dignity and is infinitely cooler than selling out your principles. It's called laziness when you don't want to fundraise yourself. Our society is forgetting the human aspect of a public cause. Administrative work can be outsourced, but what is lost is integrity and neutrality of the organization. Moderators may have biases, but no organization should have a dominating influence on an encyclopedia, the largest repository of knowledge in existence.
The above link shows why a bunch of theatre companies in Chicago would rather say great things about a bank they know very little of by having their logo on their Facebook page for a measly $20,000 award to the theatre group with the most votes. Instead of theatre groups asking for donations themselves, it became about Chase bank at every theatre group in Chicago that participated. Suddenly, off-loop theatre seems a lot less soulless. That was one little idea. I'd rather stare at Jimmy Wales's face for an urgent appeal than listen to advertisements abuot how great such and such product is when there's 20 wikipedia entries of better products. Guess which entries would be removed if such an organization bought rights to those pages? Does it happen elsewhere? Certainly Could it happen here? Certainly.
if phosphate or arsenic* is in the backbone, it is still blind. only when it goes through processes such as transcription and translation might arsenic be lost and replaced with a phosphorous. hence, the need to test these. my biggest question is, when and how does arsenic get replaced with phosphorous, if it does.
sequence analysis might not be necessary.
if phosphate is in the backbone, it does not affect the base pairs. base pairs are blind/agnostic to their backbone. GATC is still GATC with arsenic in the DNA. whether or not it's actually incorporated into ATA instead of ATP is another matter and also requires testing.
microbiology professor says: "How about the RNA and the transcription process, and sequence similarities to
other orgasnisms. Unless these issues are addressed they have no business publishing."
Evolutionary professor says, from personal correspondence:
"How about the RNA and the transcription process, and sequence similarities to
other orgasnisms. Unless these issues are addressed they have no business publishing"
I'm not a huge electronics fan, but every few years I like to buy a new video card and computer components. Can video cards be made without rare earths, or do they already do?
