			I think you're probably correct, certainly medium/long term parasitism. It might be okay for short-term (most likely the sustainable length of time). Interestingly there might be a case for symbiosis/mutualism [?]. |

			Yes, provided they can find willing parties to maintain a sustainable symbiotic relationship...

			AS.  I had gotten pregnant on the pill.  a lot of times that keeps your cycle coming.  this was in the early days of over the counter tests AND I was stationed in Germany AND seeing Army Docs.  sick morning noon and night.  they didn't know what to do with me.  the last Doc I saw right at about 4 months preggers, he diagnosed a parasite.  next week FINALLY got a positive pregnancy test back

    I took "so" as "significant other", which made Kenny's as or with comment funny. Not so much now that I know it should have been son. Still funny, but in a completely new way. | |
