I'm writing a short SF story and need some suggestions about some background info. In the story, aliens are trying to eradicate "human infestations" from various planets. Being very intelligent, but totally dismissive of humanity, they conduct eradication experiments in the laboratory to find out the best way of killing humans. I'm trying to make this part seem realistic, so want suggestion for how they might go about this. So far, I've assumed they will try various biological agents, toxins, and ionizing radiations. They also will want to understand some basic science about our environment, such as oxygen concentrations, temperatures, humidity, etc. What else might they want to examine to understand how to better know how to wipe us out? -- Casey Bralla Chief Nerd in Residence The NerdWorld Organisation http://www.NerdWorld.org ___________________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group -- http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion -- http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
