I would think that a more effective approach to the cancer problem would be preventitive gene therapy. Since cancer seems to be genetically caused by improper oncogene coding, I would like to believe that the retrovirus (HIV) could be use to correct the genetic problems. I know we're a long way off from this (considering most of the oncogenes have not been properly identified), but I'm sure this will be the future (rather than using HIV to cure AIDs)
By the way... oncogenes are those oncogenes control proper cell division (when the oncogenes are messed with, cancer cells result)
... you're way off on what you know about history and government..
India has had a female prime minister before... more than once I believe.
Also, in India.. Prime Minister is basically what the president is in the United States.. in terms of power. In India the President is more of a figurehead and doesn't really do much. With that said the Prime Minister is the leader of the party that is voted to majority in Parliament (so they don't use a Congress to answer your question).
And about Prime Ministers being used in Monarchies... I don't know where you got that from. The British use the Parliamentary system (and I don't think you can really say the Queen does much) and most other democratic nations that use systems based on more direct representation than the US system use a parliament.
Also... India has the largest democracy in the world.. so calling them Monarchist is hardly fair.
So when umm.. can I get this stuff in something not lossy... like FLAC or Monkey's Audio (in all honestly though I think use Monkey's Audio because it has the cool.ape tag)
If anything I would say that a highly acidic environment supports the idea that life could form on Europa. If you compare Europa to the Earth model then it seems that the acidic environment was similar to the old Earth where most of the organisms were extremophiles that did not use oxygen but sulfur and other substances. Earth didn't gain much oxygen until photosynthesis took a foothold and when that happened it killed off most of the organimsms because oxygen destroys chemical reactions that aren't suitable. Also, most of the organisms that exist today are the real extremophiles since they are adapted to deal with non-acidic/cold/hot environment since the original Earth was very hostile (I doubt my wording made any sense). So I would say that the acidity supports the thought that life could exist (especially the presence of sulfur).

yes it can copy and paste Miami Vice images...
can it copy and paste Miami Vice images?
I know this is horribly off topic... but heh my lab TA for bio used your website once when we were doing eye stuff...
uhhh thanks i guess

Is it ok if we just go back to articles about bio? At least I understood those :P
A beowulf cluster of nanosprings... HUZZAH!
beat me to it...
In Soviet Russia, prices slash Microsoft....
