Re: Just curious, won't there be new diseases?
I do not attribute conscious thought to Nature ( or God, Allah , Pinky & the Brain), not even some sort sort of control. Through evolution species grow extinct and new or adapted species emerge. This may happen through series of random occurrences, but the results are that species adapt to circu...

Sorry if I haven't made myself clear, I meant can I copy/translate some content of the Stanford site or will I be violating copyrights?

If there's nothing I want to translate some content of the Stanford F@H si...
