[plug] VigyaanCD: bio/chemical modeling workbench (fwd)

[William Kenworthy]

Also check out BioKnoppix @ http://bioknoppix.hpcf.upr.edu/applications
which has R/bioconductor as well.  At the time this was announced there
were a couple of other bio-* targetted CD's we came across too. 
Everybody is jumping on the boat!
