That´s very funny to realize that something usual to me, like those alpha-helixes and beta sheets, is a lot of incomprehensible stuff to other people. Just like a lot of other things are a lot of mumbo jumbo to me. images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

No, I think that if a dead section gets a certain amount of new posts within a certain period of time, it becomes active again. Maybe that is the case. Or Ren's skills faulted.
