Making Sense Of The Bogdanov Physics Scandal. Plastic::SciTech::Hoaxes: At the center of the controversy are the brothers Bogdanov, five papers on mathematical physics and a skeptical scientific community. Many claim that the work the Bogdanov's did to earn PhD's was a scam and that their articles are incoherent. [Plastic: Most Recent]

Months ago, I wrote about The Wierd Tale of the Ironville Virus, a bioterror novel from the 1920s. Now I find that in the 1974 science fiction anthology MUTANTS, that there's another story about viral takeover from the 20s, this one a tale of a sentient virus called "Liquid Life." The virus, loose in a pond, begins a march towards the ocean. Apparently, the author who wrote it , Ralph Farley, was popular and well-published. So are they many virus tales from the 1920s that I haven't stumbled across?
