Kukeh you play with folks' emotions at the wrong friggin times. You need to quit. Mortal man is talking about ecosystem preservation and what do you do? Send us a report on economic hardship from friggin crybabies. And your comment about "they're either with us or against us", Men, I know you're foolin around. Again, but it is exactly this dubyan cacamayme that brought us the friggin anopheles and her plasmodium in the first place. You ever wonder why the plasmodium evolved "out of the blue"?

Even given that you are a human and therefore entitled to a right of bias, how do you know a human life is more valuable than a mosquito life? And when you determine this to be the case, that a human life is more valuable, you still have to set about the arithemetic of how many human lives is equal to how many mosquito lives. That is where the fun begins because you will have to consider the lives of frogs, toads, other reptiles birds, beetles, worms, and goats. So why would these scientists and Caesar embark on an infantile deployment of mosquito 2.0? And how does the new mosquito address Malaria????????????????????

You guys can't even catch a thief who just cleaned your house when you meet with him on the road. With your stuff in tow. These knuckleheads are fooling around in their labs and just because they can make a mosquito glow we should be pleased with them when they wanna screw up our world. Well I ain't pleased. And Kukeh you need to quit telling about the jokers at the Economic Commission of Africa. I don't see them doing any research into the anopheles and his cousin plasmodium.

Men. Don't piss me off already.

Harunasilo may be on  to something  to demand little caution when 
ealing with biological pest control but I do not think we should shed 
ears for those animals that prey on mosquitoes. After all they have 
one a woeful job in controlling the population Anopheles mosquitoes 
the exclusive vector of the deadly Plasmodium parasite) . This is one 
ase that humankind must let all those "other animals in the food chain" 
now that they are either with us or against us!
Please refer to this Economic Commission for  Africa report for whats at 
take.

 Thanx Kukeh for sharing. I have a few concerns with these idiots (the 
 knucklehead scientists). Once those concerns are adequately addressed, 
 I will support their expedition.
  
 1. The mosquito are prey for other animals in a food chain. Make sure 
 those predators will not develop a preferential appetite for the 
 non-malaria mosquitos thereby exploding the population of malarial 
 mosquitos to compound the problem.
  
 2. Please don't tell us the enormous funds spent on anti-malaria 
 insecticides now will just be shifted to the cost of deploying these 
 new-mosquitos.
  
 3. Why don't you just work on giving the malaria mosquito another 
 source of food or wean them off blood or even focus on the breeding 
 grounds of the mosquitos for mitigation of Malaria, the disease rather 
 than introduce a new toy mosquito into our friggin world. Make sure 
 you understand the values of the malaria mosquito in ecosystem 
 connectivities before you endanger ecosystem synergies. You could be 
 creating greater problems for mankind and other animals by fucking 
 with the qualitative partners of those ecosystems. Just because you 
 stumble upon a way to eliminate something doesn't mean you should 
 eliminate it you idiot. 
 Thanx again Kukeh for sharing.
 Haruna.

 Malanding Jaiteh saw this story on the BBC News website and thought you
 should see it.



 ** Malaria-proof mosquito engineered **
 Geneticists successfully introduce a gene to mosquito larvae that blocks the 
 development of the malaria parasite.
