IPN has been identified in nearly all trout and salmon producing countries. In Norwegian salmon farms, losses of millions of dollars annually in Atla...
As Plato once said "philosophy begins in wonder". Plato was part of a triad of great thinkers who had in common a student - teacher relationship built on questioning and discussion rather than memorization and recollection of facts. Although they agreed and disagreed on many topics, it was their style of questioning and the resulting intense debates which brought them renown. Despite the passing of twenty-five hundred years their topics remain relevant to the modern world. The first of these great minds, Socrates, was born in Athens around 470 b.c. to a sculptor and midwife. ...
