When the doors will not open,
When the faucets do not run;
When game machines reject tokens,
Then technology is no longer fun.
Computer software incomprehensible,
Instructions run you in circles;
Tech support is reprehensible,
Repairs mishandled by some jerk.
You turn the car key, nothing clicks,
Hulk of steel, plastic, rubber is dead;
Battery, starter or the newfangled chips,
Which failing component has you seeing red?
Furnace quits, then the house gets cold,
Lights go out, better check breaker box;
These constant tech glitches getting old,
Frustrated enough to break some rocks!
Our modern servant that is technology,
Oft-times seems like a comedic tradgedy.
Our human genome is full of viruses similar to HIV-1. These have played an important role in human evolution and still play an important role in human embryology and day-to-day chemistry. Just how important are they to our evolution past and future?
Where do viruses, such as Ebola and HIV, come from and why they are so aggressive? This book changed tenets of evolutionary virology, developing the concepts of aggressive symbiosis and plague culling, which explain much of the horror of plague virus
The symbiotic pattern of evolution is everywhere and allows us a very different and fascinating window into the way symbiotic viruses work, since all viruses are symbiotic, including those involved in our human reproduction.
