I heard about this on the news a few weeks ago and finally got around to Google it. I simply searched for "gamers solve puzzle with AIDS". It's probably just me and my "black helicopters" form of thinking, but why isn't anyone or organization trying things like this for m.s.!? I'm VERY glad that they've possibly made a break through in the research, but what is the m.s. community doing?
Yes, AIDS is a terrible disease; as is m.s.. At 43 years of age, I've never met anyone with AIDS. However, 95% of the people I meet (and usually ask me why I have a cane), have a relative or friend who ALSO has m.s. Does anyone have any good hard numbers on the U.S. population with m.s.? How about by State?
I'll get off the soapbox now. I am, sincerely happy, that they've possibly found a chink in the armor of AIDS. Especially since they did so through "non-conventional" means!
