I'm still not taking it seriously. I know the nature of Ebola. What I do take seriously is pharmaceutical firms poaching govts to inject citizens with goodness knows what vaccines. Media scare tactic subservient to big pharma. Just wrote a paper on the HPV vaccine policy here in Oz. Shocking.

Veri, that's okay. I've done lots of analytical calculus so I spot trends by inspection. Consistent heroic efforts will be needed to contain the epidemic and get the thing back on a stable linear dynamic. When you start seeing exponents greater than 1 it's never a good sign...it means the control systems are underperforming....

That's what they predicted with 2012. Exponential end of the world. I recall you spent that time in a bunker...  :P

Contain the epidemic how? Wash your hands.

I'm going to call that perverted professor I did work experience with at KEMRI. See what's going on. Not that he'd give a fat chance care if people were dropping like flies.

He literally looks like this:



Honestly Brynn, I don't like how you calculate stuff. You could grow a moustache. I noticed a bit of a stubble on my upper lip when I finished writing my paper. I feel myself growing mannish when I study. It's distressing.

Veritas, I'm not nerdy. Just sensible. My alphabet is 0 to 9 lol. If it can't be quantified we'll find a box for it .

A box and shake it, hit it, smash it, pray to it. That's more my style.  :)

I think you're uber nerdy. You mentioned calculus. That's nerdy.

I drew calculus curves on my belly to see the ratio of how much liposuction needs to be done after popping a bun in the oven. Then decided a surrogate would be cheaper. .

Veri there's nothing nerdy at all about calculus. All it does is measure change and rates. I've met lots of nerds. I'm far from it, in fact I run away from nerds. They can drive you ballistic.

lol

Oh dear.. maybe she's really into science. You know some grown people collect figurines? Grow up?

I failed calculus at uni twice. It's nerdy. You have to memorise weirdness.
