    World's Biggest Virus

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/8...off-Chile.html

    A virus found in the sea off Chile is the biggest in the world, harboring more than 1,000 genes.
    Waiting to hear more.

    Seems as if the discovery of alien life forms right here on Earth is accelerating.

    Was this discovered anywhere near the [shudder] Black Lagoon?

    I though this:



    was the world's biggest virus.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
