FTA: There are two basic kinds of vaccines. The first uses attenuated viruses. This common and relatively simple method uses “dead” or inactive viruses. As far as the body is concerned, it’s the proteins that encase the virus that are important, not whether or not the virus is “alive.” Wrong! Attenuated viruses are not "dead." They have been modified so as to cause much less-severe disease than the wild-type, but are still infectious. You might want to read the actual paper if you want to understand this topic.

More Dawkins spam!

"Irregardless," huh? I'm out.

Thanks! I can't believe I couldn't find it :(

From the paper: "A randomised clinical trial of sufficient duration and size could provide definitive evidence for or against the disturbing mortality hazards suggested by our study. Some American NIH reviewers have opined that a randomised trial of hypnotic lethality would be unethical. No such trial has ever been mounted, perhaps for reasons similar to the absence of randomised trials of cigarettes and of skydiving without parachutes." It is absolutely unethical to give persons with no history of sleeping problems a potentially-lethal drug. This is as good as it gets.

"We cured the infection by treating the patient in an autoclave. Unfortunately, he did not survive."

Yep, it's spam.

Come on, mods.

I'm reminded of when they tried to ban Chlorine. It turns out that chlorine is actually quite useful in synthetic organic chemistry. http://www.freedom.org/reports/srchlorine.html

Man, I wish I had mod points... So does the UK pay the Swedegeld every year now?

That's not a bad idea...maybe they make on that sounds like a fog horn.

As a motorcycist, I would encourage people to not talk or text on their phones while driving. Whenever someone tries to kill me, it's always the same: a woman fiddling with her phone. However, I'm sure this ban would be enforced sporadically, with no reduction in traffic accidents caused by distracted driving...it will just become another excuse for the cops to pull you over and smell your breath.

Ahem: "used a genetically altered adenovirus to infect muscle cells and deliver DNA that codes for antibodies isolated from the blood of people infected with HIV." -From the article
