    "This is less than the 50%+1 required to have controlling interest."

    Do you even have a clue how many shareholders there are for GM/OnStar?

    Again, go do research.

    Or run a company such as mine, which has more shareholders.

    Government can just get a few more rules and laws passed to make those votes go their way.

    "Menstruation is also called menstrual bleeding, menses, catamenia or a period. The flow of menses normally serves as a sign that a woman has not become pregnant.

    Majority shares are controlling votes.

    Perhaps you should learn a bit about shares and stocks.

    That's enough of a containment breach to render the cloaking ineffective, it seems. Remember, you can't really cloak damaged sections of a ship. How do you cloak damaged sections of a syringe? How do you cloak damaged sections of a virus?

    That much sex would likely mean you infected everyone else with HIV, and those kids wouldn't survive to reproduce because they'd have no immune system, either.

    So, no, natural selection would not even favor you. In fact, it would laugh in your face while it stomped on your nuts.

    There's a chance you'd have the kids before having sex with that one infected person. Not a good one, though.

    "This actually pokes holes in the cholesterol membrane using a chemical called beta-cyclodextrin. This chemical binds to this special type of cholesterol around an HIV cell, which had two desired effects. It prevented the HIV virus from hyper-activating PDC's (the mechanism which damages the immune response itself), and it seems it also damaged it's ability to replicate. The chemical actually leaves the membrane riddled with holes due to this binding process"

    I want someone with paid access to /. go through all my comments, because I proposed this EXACT method of attack YEARS AGO right here on /. I want to claim prior art, please. I'll repeat essentially what I said years ago here.

    Think of a virus as a 'syringe.' Now, if you break that syringe, it pretty much becomes useless, right? You don't have to worry about what's inside, because it will never make it to its intended injection target (assuming this thing doesn't gain some adaptation that allows the free-floating RNA to just be absorbed by immune cells) and thus be as effective as a gun loaded with blanks.

    Don't attack what's inside the syringe, attack the syringe itself. Compromise it, break that needle, make it lose containment. It's completely useless as a syringe after that.

    Maybe someone listened to my idea.

    Yes, because this is your property and thus this is a property crime, and not some contract violation.

    You, as the owner of the property, said students may come get vegetables.

    You have the right to choose which students may have that privilege of contract, since they aren't old enough to legally be in a contract in the first place (The school would have to enforce punishment on their side for the kid breaking the contract, you would handle trespassing.)

    That's EXACTLY how it worked at my high school greenhouse.
