Looks like Avatar's got a good shot at a $2 billion total globally when all is said and done. It's arguably a more bankable franchise than the Avengers at this point.

#raspberrypi things. I found that the Imager v2.03 wasn't working on my windows 11 machine (wouldn't get past 8% writing, then wouldn't recognise SD card as being writable or having sufficient space).
Reverting to v1.9.6 seems to be working.

We found that hospital patients were frequently colonised with P. aeruginosa and that the same clone was shared between the gut and the lung.
The phylogenies indicate that the clones moved from lung->gut
