It is a bit much now for me to believe that CIAramella is this guy’s real name.
Something really smells with this.
Anagram for Eric CIAramella is cercariae.
Cercariae is a type of helminth and equates to a worm on a stick, worm wrapped around a stick.
Could they be more obvious?
Interesting wander here. Dracunculiasis (Guinea worm) would have that as a developmental stage. You remove adult worms emergent from the skin by typically wrapping it around a stick, and taking up the slack when the worm relaxes it’s anti removal barbs.
The Gates (as in Bill) foundation has been a big player in the current near eradication of the parasite from its last holdout areas, some of the more remote parts of Africa.
The adult form exhibits a type of host behavior modification in that it raises a painful boil which is soothed by immersion in water, where it bursts and releases the larval or proglottid stage (not sure if there’s a 3rd incarnation in them off top of my head).
It definitely ranks high in the gross and creepy parasite department. Look up horse hail worm for similar that affects bugs...
A number of CIA people identify with pseudonyms in order to protect their private lives. This guy has twice been associated with death threats - questionably IMHO.
