Just bought this childhood book of mine for my own newborn son... Probably a bit too young for this sequel tho
No, don't worry, this is merely the German fairytale edition! It's good for kids!
Considering sending this to my daughter who wants to learn English.
Outstanding meme. Cool fact is that the wasps inject their eggs along side a virus, which specifically turns off the manduca's immune system for a bit. It then allows the immune system to turn back on. Since the eggs have been in there during the immune reboot, they're considered 'self' and not attacked by the immune system
I assume someone is looking into a similar system for transplants, right?!
Identification of this virus began in 1973, here is an article about it from 1997. - I suppose a lifetime supply of immunosuppressants is far more profitable than the system you are proposing.... but I like your system. It just is more elegant.
That is some shit straight out of sci-fi horror like Alien.
