Sorry Lotus, I didn't mean to anger you, I was merely trying to answer your question and give an opinion. In actual fact I have a degree in Genetics and have been working in that field for about six years (both in the UK and Hong Kong), so you can imagine I have actually read many, many books on the subject of RNA/DNA and virus. My work requires me to read journals (and write for them too) to keep up to date with the field. Admitedly my knowledge of Hepatitis is less than other viruses such as HIV, AIV, FMDV, etc but ultimately viruses and RNA behave in similar ways. So I do infact have at least 'half a clue'.
I answered your question, without malice, based on the information you gave and based on the knowledge of working with RNA/DNA practically everyday. If I wasn't confident of the information I gave, I simply wouldn't have wasted time writting it. But I do apologise for getting you back up, it was not my intent.
If you manage to track down some papers relating to other scientists pursuing your idea (or similar) I would love to read them, perhaps their explanation will show me how this can work without stopping the cellular functions. Try searching PubMed for scientific publications (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?db=PubMed), if nothing else it may just help in your own research.
