Okay, so that is old news. We also have a new fire to light our runway. And they specialize in RNAi!!! They have the old Nastech CSO who was "resigned" recently after years of not making RNAi work there.

What's in the News
'In the South Seas there is a cargo cult of people. During the war they saw airplanes with lots of good materials, and they want the same thing to happen now. So they've arranged to make things like runways, to put fires along the sides of the runways..."
