#1 Prof Linda-Gail Bekker, the president of the International Aids Society, told the BBC: "This paper reports an exciting breakthrough.

Even more exciting Prof Bekker would be the discovery of an 'antibody' that attacks fok'n CANCER, which is killing the rest of us who are NOT buggering one another.

#3 Not bullshit. Antibodies block certain receptors. Problem with HIV is our body doesn't make one well for the protein receptor it attacks. Some people have a mutated version and are immune from the virus. Creating an antibody in the lab and using an infected monkey or pig to pump out more of them isn't too far out there. They have been doing it for years against other viruses.

OK, but what if we made little nanobot submarines that would go out and hunt down the invading viruses. Like in that movie Fantastic Voyage. Also Raquel Welch.
