This is what I can't understand.  Why doesn't this newsgroup get more
action on this topic?  This is the Internet.  Where are all the Japanese
microbiologists?  Or, at least why do I constantly hear the news on this
topic from a regular newspaper?  I would rather hear the microbiology news
from a microbiologist. 

(Sorry I couldn't help.)
