[Kristian Andersen] Mind you - a *perfectly* round head and not just a round head. [2020-08-24 16:02:43] [Eddie Holmes] I had better get the calipers out. [2020-08-24 16:49:15] [Eddie Holmes] Having some fun with Alina. Clueless. [2020-08-24 18:45:11] [Eddie Holmes] She seems to seriously think that humans gave a SARS-CoV-2-like virus to pangolins....which obviously raises more questions than it resolves. [2020-08-24 19:32:49] [Kristian Andersen] Importantly though, that virus must have come from the lab. [2020-08-24 19:41:57] [Eddie Holmes] Exactly. It's just all completely contradictory.

George is totally furious with him because he feels he should get all the credit. This ain't going to end well. [2020-08-25 19:44:40] [Kristian Andersen] Yeah, I thought it was a pretty interesting article - especially the title. The article itself doesn't really talk too much about "controversies", but still, a pretty worthwhile read. [2020-08-25 20:06:01] [Eddie Holmes] They've actually punished him and the team a lot more than he has let on. [2020-08-25 20:10:09] [Kristian Andersen] That I can certainly believe! [2020-08-26 00:47:51] [Eddie Holmes] Just had my first freedom of information journo request.... [2020-08-26 00:54:19]
