>From TFA, "Other biohackers argue that Mother Nature is more likely than any home
hobbyist to create dangerous new pathogens. They cite the current
A/H1N1 "swine flu" virus, which is a made-in-the-wild brew of human,
bird and pig influenzas."  <br><br>This statement is more in doubt today that it was yesterday:   <a href="http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=afrdATVXPEAk&refer=home" target="_blank">http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=afrdATVXPEAk&refer=home</a><br>

That article was pretty good.  It showed diybio in a very sympathetic<br>
light, talked about some potential<br>
risks but didn't overplay them - even George Church, who wants them to<br>
be licensed, came off well.<br>
<br>
That was great - Thanks for pointing it out Michael.<br>
