FR has a group of about 200 FReepers that run the Folding@home protein simulation.

It is amazing to watch the jmol simulator work with F@H. On a fast system such as the PS3, you can actually simulate Brownian motion and watch a protein fold before your eyes.

A nanosecond of folding a medium size molecule can take months to complete.

Considering how big they are, cockroaches can't have very big brains. And yet, some of the things cockroaches do (like playing dead) are downright clever.

Computers as clever as cockroaches would be scary.

Every few days my computer plays dead.
