Did you forget to put your name on it? That's the only way it could be too low for honors @ usf.

TCA = tricarboxylic acid cycle = krebs

Just clone without the brain. Technology will [very] soon make it possible.

We haven't really established that free will exists in the first place.

That clicking thing was a Geiger counter. If it's clicking alot, there's alot of radiation. Doesn't matter what type (a/b particle emissions, radon is a).

Well they call it tricarboxylic acid cycle in my cell and molec book. I guess it's just how it works in upper level biology classes, something which you're not yet familiar with.

Bah. Everyone knows that glycolysis just produces pyruvate for the tricarboxylic acid cycle, so I might have included that, which takes place in the mitochondria (only in eukaryotes).

You're only ahead by 7 now

and you can teach MIS courses, as long as you have a terminal degree.

That's what I'm talking about

Depends on the school... if you're teaching at a Research I university then yeah.. otherwise maybe not.

Most colleges offer algebra based for non-majors who don't want to take a course beyond their understanding.

Get a PhD in comp. sci. and teach at a university. both respected and on the forefront of technology (varies by school)

Wouldn't be an advantage to share outside your own family.

Nope, you already admit you're not infallable

I doubt theres any difference in percent homosexuality from death valley to the north pole :/

An 80 year doesn't have any knowledge that would help a 30 year old reproduce, at least not any that other 30 year olds don't have. Also, consider that language only came along 200,000 years ago by a random mutation, so obviously before that there were no elderly by our standards today, and certainly no way to communicate high level knowledge.

Anything more than basic knowledge is not a survival factor. In fact, the cretins breed more... so being ignorant is more of an advantage than being a genius. Knowledge needed to survive can be imparted by just about anyone.

You're more intelligent than me?

Why do you think they call them "fruit" flies?

He doesn't even remotely resemble the slightest thing that might in some distant galaxy start to infinitesmally be related to intelligence.

There's a vaccine for Alzheimers. It's also genetics based, so we could use RNAi on that gene too.

What is everyones opinion on which level of physics you should take? College Physics is algebra based and alot simpler, University Physics is calculus based and alot harder, but gives you a better understanding. Obviously if you're a physics major you should take calc based, but what about if you're in another major?

Watch our generation that grew up in front of computer monitors all get brain tumors at some point in life.

Amino acids form RNA... and there's strong evidence RNA might have been able to self-replicate in the past. Translation now involves enzymes that bind to RNA... but there are some cases where other parts of the RNA chain itself acts as the enzyme. These could be remnants of how it used to work.
