An invader exploiting its host to the point where its host can no longer sustain itself and stay alive seems to me to be the ultimate stupidity. Here you've gone to all the trouble of figuring out what you have to do to make the host think that you're part of "own ship", and then you suck own ship dry, guaranteeing your own demise. Maybe that's part of the plan. Kill the host and commit suicide if the host fights, otherwise wait... -- John Fields Professional Circuit Designer

My simplified view is not about invaders with plans, but just a genetic defect that turns a normal cell into a fast dividing one. Like hair. Hair is not a problem, it grows out of your body and you can cut it off, if you like. -- Thanks, Frank. (remove 'q' and '.invalid' when replying by email)
