This article is a fascinating read for all....all politics aside. The code the virus is written in contains code with meanings and symbols. Truly fascinating for all you computer folks out there.

Agreed......but did you read the specifics of this virus? And how it mutates into seperate virus's and only attacks Seamens equipment tricking it into thinking its spinning the centerfuges correctly when its not??? Crazy. And the virus had to be personally planted somewhere in the town near the weapons facility. Amazing.

Then the scientist in charge of finding the virus gets blown up with his wife last week.......awsome story.:pimp:
