now we are getting geeky

this thread is hotting up

dd you all know that

Chronic active Epstein Barr virus (EBV)-infection is characterized by mononucleosis like symptoms including fatigue, lymphadenopathy and/or hepatosplenomegaly and serologic evidence for ongoing EBV replication. Interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) triggers several antiviral mechanisms in target cells including the induction of indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), which degrades the essential amino acid tryptophan to kynurenine. Because tryptophan is a precursor of the neurotransmitter 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin), tryptophan depletion by IDO can cause mood disturbances in patients with chronic immune activation.

I like the anatomical / psychological / personable digressions on this thread.

Yeah you gotta round it. What other choice do you have? Truncation? That doesn't make any sense. I usually go to 3.14159. Beyond that I have trouble remembering.

Sexy robots and aliens that kill are scary. Remember that woman from species? They don't have to be fancy geeks - just ones you like.
