Nice. Of course, some of us can only long for even a goblin venturing into our blogs.
BTW speaking of trolls - how many comments are you people trying to get in that thread at Tara's place? I've given up following it - I can only stand the same talking points from lincoln, pat, and kevin twenty or thirty times. Now, I just scroll by.
You know what I think is really strange, though? It looks like her trolls are contained. Like they have been attenuated to the 'Aetiology' environment and cant function anywhere else.
Not one has come over here (and stayed). Youd think if they had the ability to survive outside the Aetiology environment, they would come over here to defend Culshaw/ALVs/etc... But they dont.
Hey I will say this of Trolls-- They are great learning tools for students/amateurs. I have learned a LOT about HIV correcting Deniers (and a lot about evolution by correcting Creationists, back in college). Its even better when there are knowledgeable mentors around (eg Tara, Brian Foley, etc) to correct the students/amateurs.
I'm a graduate student studying the molecular and biochemical evolution of HIV within patients and within populations. I also study epigenetic control of ERVs.

I think the record is about 600. Im hoping to beat that. Common man, keep posting! You can do it! hehe!
Ive only had drive-by trolls here. The one Denier that tried to post ran off :(
Well, got sucked back in *sigh*
I wonder when Tara will loose patience with us all, and ban the lot of us.

When properly contained, Trolls can be useful.
But what do you do if there is a leak? The trolls might spill over into unprotected territory, and disrupt carefully balanced ecosystems.
