I *never* use any kind of medicine (unless I have no choice), I never use band aids on nicks and scratches (don't disinfect them either). I have no food intolerance, food allergies or other weird ailment.

You must be descended from wild men with stone tools who lived in caves and ate mastodon meat with the Flintstones. I think we're related.

Comment Re:HOPE to exploit it (Score 2) 106

The summary will be perfect in "a few years time" when the researchers hope to have the solution.

So this is less a news story and more a fund raising effort. That rings true to me. I think we're seeing a lot more advertisement built right into the programming these days... What a novel idea: sell a lot of snake oil to sick people.

If they don't like the divide, it's time for them to pick up a shovel and start filling it in on their own. I'm tapped out.

Here's an idea, we'll eliminate Comcast and AT&T so you can have your basic internet and cable for free, just like the poor.

That's what I want to hear from our political campaigns. Don't elect anything less - demand more. The worst company in America should get jail time, not market guarantees. Kill this malignancy of corporate cancer.

So basically, when assured a demographic (and limited term) of a student, they deign help who they please. Not just the poor or needy citizens, but just the virgin meat: Children easily influenced by their advertising and enticements to pay per view, are their prey.

When Comcastula gets its virgin fetus guarantee, they offer to do the government's job, and protect the best interest of its third world citizens. Never mind the fact, as was stated, that they fail to deliver as promised.

Stop paying Comcast now. Don't vote for incumbents. If the wealth is not shared, then just take it back. Start with opening up the market to anyone who wants to compete with an la carte menu.
