&lt;blockquote&gt;Don’t waste your time on morgellonswatch.com. This website is being paid for by the people responsible for spreading this disease/parasite/bacteria, whatever it is.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Y'all, as funny as it seems, they honest-to-gosh believe that. They're not just trying to be cute or anything.</description>

		<description>Ok, that does it.  I'm on strike for at least the next 8 hours.  TC got sunglasses AND gas for the van.  I demand a copy of D'Artagnan's cloak from "Man in the Iron Mask".

I'll be at youtube, watching Criss Angel stuff, if anyone asks.  After that, I'll be looking for Suri Cruise.</description>

		<description>Entertained, look at the jump in the number of viewers to Michael blog. I disagree with your comment that this doesn’t exist among the “sane”.

Many illnesses which evoke a delusional state can exist among persons who are "sane" (as you put it). I don't like the choice of wording that implies someone as either being "sane" or "insane". That's archaic language to use, because there are few mental illnesses without treatments, nowadays.

Most people who think they have "morgellons disease" all have similar traits, and should have listened to, and followed their doctors' diagnoses and advice. I'm sorry, but resist that, and suffer the consequences. Every last one of you reveals the state of mind you're in, here, all over the internet.

Do you think it's pleasurable for the general public to bear witness to?</description>

		<description>You all are so pathetic... well, you do have each other to lean on. Yeah, all 3 of you! It's interesting how quickly your little clan is diminishing in numbers. Hmmmm...

Unfortunately, you are all in for such a rude awakening. As I listen to the same old lame dialouge back and forth between all of you "credible debunkers", I can't help but wonder why you waste SO much energy trying to prove this doesn't exist amongst the "sane".

Just who are you trying to convince? The world, or yourselves? You all have become amusing to me and many others. Even those who once shared your DOP view/opinion have had to eat their words and at the very least, admit they need to look in to it more before making themselves look any more foolish than they already have.

The truth always prevails! For your sake, you better pray you are right. The sad part is, that with what I know, no prayer in the world could save your predictions or your egoes.

This is some real stuff. Really twisted, scary, painful, and frustrating due to ignorant persons like yourselves. Even your names are pathetic!

smileydork,jeezelouise u r from the eightys, &#38; of course "tallcotten=small... well, you know. You all need to get a life!!!!!

How about you do something worthwhile with your time? Go volunteer at a children's hospital or something. You all make me feel more sick than I already am &#38; I PROMISE you-you will feel like morons in the end.</description>

I just found out it is from the tobacco hornworm! This is the insect that the parasitoid wasp does a number on!!

I have been trying to tell you guys about the ricsettsia diseases, in which they now call all of them the Bartonellas:

		<description>From the CDC:
http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/EID/vol9no2/02-0222.htm

Photorhabdus spp. have been the subject of intensive study by agricultural scientists because of the role these bacteria play in controlling insects. Insects, like humans, are subject to infestation by nematodes (3). Photorhabdus spp. inhabit the gut of some insect-pathogenic nematodes (Heterorhabditis spp.), where they form a symbiotic relationship. Nematode species of this type are able to invade the larvae of susceptible insects and release Photorhabdus spp. The bacteria proliferate and promote nematode reproduction by killing the insect larvae.

Insect-pathogenic nematodes harboring Photorhabdus spp are used as biopesticides in a number of countries, including the United States and Australia. Agricultural scientists are also attempting to develop insect-resistant transgenic crops by using insecticidal toxin genes derived from Photorhabdus spp. (4).

Genes encoding homologues of insecticidal toxins from Photorhabdus spp occur naturally within the genome of Yersinia pestis, the cause of plague. Lateral transfer of genetic material between Photorhabdus and Yersinia species is thought to have resulted from their common association with insects as bacterial pathogens (5).</description>
