bioengineering with viruses is untested and the long term effects unknown. we are playing "god" and we aren't being cautious at all. very foolhardy IMHO. The worst part is they put that shit in our food.

No it's not. It's not just viruses, she also uses yeast, or any microorganisms that you can breed selectively. Don't tell me that you object to beer milk products or bread. Unlike GMOs which are created by injecting DNA slices into host organisms using viruses, Belcher's method involves no DNA manipulation of this sort but natural selection. On the contrary this has the potential of environmentally friendly mass production of consumer goods, it could be the key to a sustainable civilization.

Have to agree on the "head's up" about this. The video made it sound one way, though due to your clearification and clarification, one finds out another. Still, given that all living things mutate, change, and adapt, I wonder how these viruses are going to "evolve" and mutate in a few years due to this?? Still, THANK YOU again for the clearification and clarification on what IS what. Peace and Blessings Be With......

the microorganisms only participate in the manufacturing process. Their product although organically produced is not living. If you have concerns about biological products you should be worried about drinking beer eating bread or various milk products. the only difference is that now we can view the process of breeding these microorganisms under very powerful microscopes and get them brew the stuff we want much faster than nature or our ancestors could teach them.

See, this is what people need to know of and about. "Ethical" research, development, and progress. There is so much dis-information and negative reports and research that is being talked of, about, etc.. To know that there IS "ethical research AND progress" IS GREAT!!! And I Thank You for replying!! It's when you read and know about changes in Executive Orders like: 13505 Removing Barriers to Responsible Scientific Research Involving Human Stem Cells 2009-03-09.....and you can see what I mean.

You can learn more about it: scientists give popular lectures accessible for average people all the time. On MIT's website search for Daniel Nocera, Angela Belcher, Penny Chisholm & Drew Endy.

mitworld . mit . edu/series/view/88

On Aspen Institute or Fora TV search for Richard Smalley and Steven Chu.

watch?v=nsVMKWzbRWQ

Or just check out UCTelevision and BerkeleyLab channels on youtube.

Glad to be of any help.

lolol the narrator says orgasms at 1:27

[seanmPWH]

At 0:57 Angela Belcher says 'the organisms learned to make shells', Wouldn't it be more accurate to say the changes in the environment caused the expression of shells. And that's only if you believe that one form preceded the other, which seems to be supported only by evolutionary folklore.

THAT CAr gets 150 to the gallon, but i bet it cant go that fast

[The4LA2Baker0]

@Castigar2000 AHAHAHAHAHAH! You are ignorant on so many levels. Conversing with you is clearly a waste of time. Read a book retard.

[Castigar2000]

@The4LA2Baker0 You're an idiot. Give me one single example of bioengineered viruses or nanobots being secretly put in anyone's food. You're what's called a paranoid conspiracy theorist. You ever use your electron microscope and find any miracles of retroviral engineering in your Corn Flakes? You should be taking lithium for your schizophrenia.

"The viruses are identical..... except for minute differences.

fuk man, 4 degrees?!

lmao her names belcher
