May she drive her Pris off into the sunset

That looks vaguely vulgar.........;^)

My perceptions exactly.

Never mind the fact that she knew what she wanted to find and whala...she found it.

I thought the whole announcement was reminiscent of the Cold Fusion debacle.

Her critics include this Simon Silver, a University of Illinois microbiologist who specializes in heavy-metal

He's currently all wrapped up in developing gold eating bacteria that could reduce the use of cyanide to extract particles from ore.

You'd better believe he got excited with this one ~ he's probably got one just like it burbling away in a petri dish somewhere, and this is screwing up his application for a patent!

He's setting the groundwork for what he hopes is a successful challenge in behalf of HIS BUGS.

Is that the same Simon “Sticks” Silver who was the drummer in the band Dio?

Why would anyone be surprised at such phony-baloney “scientific” results from an institution that continues to trumpet faked global warming data and whose self-announced primary institutional mission is to make Arabs feel good about themselves because their last significant scientific advancement was the invention of the zero several hundred years ago?
