# Transcript

**[2021-05-09T19:55:58] Edward C. Holmes:** Looks like KGA broke the internet :facepunch: Our boy Alex nicely put eDim down as well.

**[2021-05-09T20:02:14] Kristian G. Andersen:** Alex did indeed - so good. What a dumb comment from eDim too - straight out of the intelligent design crowd.

**[2021-05-09T20:04:31] Edward C. Holmes:** I know. Desperate stuff.

**[2021-05-09T20:04:31] Andrew Rambaut:** New t-shirt slogan from an Angie tweet: "Basic as fuck"

**[2021-05-09T20:04:31] Andrew Rambaut:** or punk band name

**[2021-05-09T20:04:31] Edward C. Holmes:** Let's hope Mrs Baltimore saw Kristian's thread. I'm sure she'll enjoy taking him down a notch or two.

**[2021-05-09T20:04:31] Andrew Rambaut:** Technically Baltimore's comment could be true - he may well have said that to his vite iii Pe

**[2021-05-09T20:04:31] Andrew Rambaut:** Presumably knows way more about FCSs than DB

**[2021-05-09T20:04:31] Andrew Rambaut:** I like to think that Baltimore mansplained it to her

**[2021-05-09T20:04:31] Edward C. Holmes:** Nobelsplaining is even worse.

**[2021-05-09T20:04:31] Andrew Rambaut:** shared file(s): image.png

**[2021-05-09T20:04:31] Robert F. Garry:** WSJ - a mixed bag of reporting opinion. eDim tweets get press. [shared file(s): China, Fauci and the Origins of Covid- WSJ.pdf]

**[2021-05-09T20:04:31] Kristian G. Andersen:** .... and here it is (haven't read it) [shared file(s): bloom-05-14-21.pdf]

**[2021-05-09T20:04:31] Andrew Rambaut:** Fuck. Worobey is on it
