Re: I Angered Someone
He didn't specify how long the strand was.  For all we know this particular strand is measured in kilometers.

Re: I Angered Someone
Well, a RNA strand is more likely to be in the nanometres of length...  |

Re: I Angered Someone
A quick note about your SE email getting out - I did a search yesterday for my name (it is not a typical name and I wanted to see if it picked it up from my business website). I was surprised to the seach turn up my forum user profile! I guess I'm an idiot when it comes to the PC community - everyone else probably knows this - but I did not know that anyone could access the user profiles via search engines. LSNED.

Well, maybe he used a strand from a retrovirus.
But you have to go for DNA to get the loong ones. (IIRC the average human chromosome would be 9 *meters* long completely unwrapped..)

Re: I Angered Someone
And so another serious thread devolves into OT comments and sillyness.....

I seem to have forgotten my biology. Well at least I was only off by a few orders of magnitude!
