I happen to have been involved in some research about this sort of situation concerning bacteriophage technology (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacteriophage). Bacteriophages are organisms that kill bacteria. If you are able to deliver this to bacteria in the body, this would be perfect to replace, or to use next to antibiotics, which would in turn also solve the increasing problem of immunity to antibiotics, and give the medical world a whole new weapon in the fight against viruses etc. This technology has been used in Eastern Europe since forever (over a century), but has failed to catch on in the western world. Pharmaceutical companies refuse to invest in research simply because it doesn't have a clear place in both the European as the American medical laws. Companies are not able to protect their investments, so they don't.
Lately some initiative has been taken to give this a clear spot, and already some companies are jumping on the posibility.
Imagine how many lives could have been saved if this technology would have been available. (For instance, it's very likely the EHEC outbreak in Germany last year would have been solved without casualties.)
Not at all, if pharmaceutical companies couldn't make profit, they wouldn't research. If you have to rely on universities alone to do medical studies you'd miss out on a lot.
In this care I have to side with Flint.
i am tempted to agree
although there always are situations....
but yea.
I'll have you know that my family has not demanded planets from any family, let alone from a family half our nw.
Just so you know.
hehe, you are absolutely right
we that should have priority to be fixed.
apparently only like 200 people died in the rand rebelion, not more than a bleep on your radar i guess 
i thought it was more than that.
IF i recall there have been significant communist revolts in South Africa as well.
I am going to close this thread because it's really not on topic anymore.
If you want to have a proper discussion on this, you can open a new thread, if you just want to bicker to eachother like a married couple, go to the dr phil show.
and another post just to have 4 in a row!
also, will have a developer look at this
agreed (we don;t have spots left, do we?)
Welcome Wornstrum 
random into 05 if you want to get owned by 01 and 11 
Tu probably would have been more interested in the 5yr olds and the free booze.
not having GC is the one thing i like about these forums 
why wasn't i mentioned, i want my glory X(
Cool
reminds me of the days when wars had whole stories written around them 
Seeing as I was in fact, also in swimming gear, I did not have a camera with me.
All I have to say is that if my family does well this round, I claim none of the glory
I haven't played in way too long to be able to actually compete, make strategies etc. If we do well, all glory goes to others 
Oh, and, when we were joking about my fam being better than it appeared...we didn't have drafts yet, didn't really intend to bring in drafts, and were just 3 randoms hanging out together 
Fuerteventura, TU.
I have great stories of topless blonde lesbians making out by the pool.
