Hi all, I just wanted to share this new blog (not mine, I hasten to add - I'm not that clever) that is planning to explain the science in easy to understand ways. The first post is about Paprotka et al's recombinant theory, and why the conclusions in that paper are unsafe.

Check it out, see what you think. You can comment on the blog at the bottom of each page.
eta: there's a second post up, about retroviruses and prions. Now I understand! (I think...)
