think we need to make the drugs safer and more effective rather than focusing on the delivery system. Better delivery of a drug that's only 95% effective isn't a cure.
Incineration of the entire body will kill the cancer cells 100% of the time - but like the commercials say, "doctors agree" that the delivery system has some downsides.
Much of the problem of present chemotherapy is the nondesired effects, such as death from posioning, due to a need to deliver a great quantity of the drug in order to get some portion of the cancer to die. The drugs are quite effective on inidividual cells - keeping the gunslingers away from healthy cells is the challenge.
Between blogs and indy news sources at least your information will be stripped of the shock sensationalism the major news sources try to rope you in with.
You are joking, right? If anything, they're worse. They're also more likely to promote crackpot conspiracy theories and publish stories with little or no evidence.
Yeah - I look to Newsweek to insure the stories backed by credible evidence... oh wait.
... you'll get letters reminding you that you're "misusing" the trademark. But that's just "due diligence" -- not even the person who wrote the letter takes it serious.
Anyone out there got an itch to write a useful extension for Firefox? One that catches any domain name that leechers (yes, they are leechers - they are capitalizing on someone's mistake, not their intent) use to take unfair advantage, and redirects it to the intended site. It'd need an easy "on/off" button so that you could visit the crap sites if you wanted.
Why are so many people participating in seti@home... I would rate this as a goal irrelevant to most people
Apparantly all those people participating in seti@home don't lend much credence to your ratings, but have made their own choices of where to spend their resources, on goals they do find relevant.
Somehow I suspect Second Amendment was talking about pistols, not mortars. Something you can use to repell bandits who show up at your house, but not to interfere with general public's "pursuit of happiness".
That all depends on how well armed the bandits are when they show up.

The above is not a troll. Milton Friedman would get modded troll by the shortsighted dumb asses here.

Around here, one frequently leads to the other.
Thank you Al. Now please go away quietly.
They do if there is money involved.
You'd be an internet hero.
Damien - is that you?
Well, if we achieve the first, then the second is simply a matter of enough time...

Being infected with "just a bit of spyware" is like being just a little bit pregnant.
Most business plans are great if they can be made to work.
Outsource it to India?
It'd be much more fun if there were little laser cannons mounted on them.
That's what happens when there is no such thing as minimum wage and the concept of work or starve is the norm.
Not with my handy-dandy tinfoil hat.
Makes you wonder why they aren't suing any CAD hardware or software vendors.

It's just that they are very selective about which examples of corruption they cover.
"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."
And, other than stroking one's self-delusion, this will change what?
