I haven't read the link, but I had to comment to say I love your icon.

The icon was originally created for comments to someone who kept posting "Ooh! Look at this!" links to the most bizzare stuff.

ERk.

Breeding viruses that can survive highest temperatures of the human body. Now there's an idea I like to hear about from a backyard biologist's closet research...

Yep. The world could end not with a bang or whimper but an "Oops!"

Amusing, but not surprising

I don't know as the article supports your point, since the focus of the article is "a recent MIT grad" and thus probably does not have a particularly low IQ.

Interesting, nonetheless.

The median recent grad of twenty years ago (such as, ahem, me) wouldn't have been able to do that. A super-genius could have . . . and twenty years from now it won't take an MIT degree.
