Actually, it's more about efficiency and called the "wobble position". Here's a wikipedia paste since i'm lazy: -- In the genetic code there are 4^3 = 64 possible codons (tri-nucleotide sequences). For translation each of these codons requires a tRNA molecule with a complementary anticodon. If each tRNA molecule paired with its complementary mRNA codon using canonical Watson-Crick base pairing, then 64 types (species) of tRNA molecule would be required. Since most organisms have fewer than 45 species of tRNA[1], some tRNA species must pair with more than one codon. In 1966 Francis Crick proposed the Wobble hypothesis to account for this. -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wobble_base_pair
I don't know what kind of a cable modem you have, But mine (Surfboard SB3100) needs to be reset if I boot from one OS to another. If you've set up a dual boot computer and your cable modem works fine with one OS - unplug it (the power), plug it back in, wait until you get a signal again, and boot into linux. You may be surprised:)
The only way to stain the invading bacteria is to find some way of targeting the cell membrane of ONLY the pathogenic bacteria... what about your normal flora? If you kill them off, your dead anyway. And if you can find a way to distinguish them by some protein structure, you might as well use a vaccine, it's a much easier approach. Just a though...
Also, don't forget: only retroviruses are RNA. Many viruses are composed of DNA:)
I think rde is commenting on the overuse of antibiotics in everyday use. Over the years people have demanded antibiotics for things such as the common virus, many Doctors were pressured into prescribing them... even if they're not needed. Therefore, when they're actually needed to fight a bacterial infection like TB(when they of course would be used) your out of luck.
It's 120 pounds versus 147 for the Mark VI. See, 120 pounds is a full-dressed fireman, and everybody knows what they can do. The flexibility is up to 91.5 percent. With the Mark VI you had 15 percent. So I can drive a car, climb stairs, do a dive roll, run full tilt in the G-Man.
Hmm? Nice way to hide a message, but who ever the intended reader is will also need to know the Key, which is probably a 10-20 base sequence of DNA (a primer) for (I assume) PCR. If the message is THAT important, who ever you don't want to get it probably has easy access to a PCR machine(most college undergrads do)...
beyond that all the "enemy" need is 4 things:
1) the letter 2) the Key sequence 3) whatever code they used to translate the ATCG sequences into words 4) $50 for the primer
- (all of the above i'd have to call "everyday" intelligence issues:)
-which makes me wonder what the point of the whole experiment was???

Oh don't worry, they'll adapt
Yikes, forget one word and you change the whole context.
The above should say "not only written", instead of "not written".

EVE online was not written in C/C++ - it was done using stackless Python.
Try this from a terminal (assuming you've got mplayer installed). ;/.

One thing you might try...

Good luck!
Don't forget the "parallax" to Ender's Game... Ender's Shadow.

I'm really not sure which I enjoyed more, they were both extremely good
Your analogies are excellent, but I have to disagree in one case: What if *I* were one of the few!?!
Hmm... things seem different now.

His new G-man suit will fix that:

And to think I've been arguing with my girlfriend that guys don't always have holes in their socks... damn.
Even if the movie sucks, it may be enough publicity to warrant a sequel to the book!
