That's cool. On the other hand, dig the justified skepticism about mass vaccination. We have a situation where roughly 1 in 100 people have a "seriously adverse reaction" to HPV infection, and we're going to solve this by introducing an agent of a new type into the bloodstream of nearly all First World women. Hmm.
