I think there are too many variables to know the truth.
I think by the time a mozzie bites you and realises what kind of blood you have it's too late anyway for them to make the decision whether to bite you or not.
I think it is probably more down to how strongly some people smell (in terms of pheromones) and also skin exposure, temperature, type of mozzie, time of day, surrounding conditions, seating arrangements, wind, time of day, amount of sweat on people, application of repellent and who knows how many other factors are at play here.
I really think that blood type is probably pretty low on the list of why mozzies would bite somebody over somebody else.
EDIT: Wait did I mention time of day???
PS. My point here is how would a mozzie know what type of blood you are before it has bitten you? By the time it has pierced your skin to find out it's already too late.

WGMG: Knowing all the people running against the Labor seat in my area and having them all talk to me like I am one of their assured votes. WGMG: The stupid greens people who try to sign people up to stop mining and the "polluting" steelworks in Wollongong. What the hell is Wollongong going to do if you shut down the main reason it is there? Take them away and you, me and everyone in the area probably won't have a job anymore.

WGMG: Family get togethers in Gosford. Had another wonderful time last night
He was a man of specific quirks. He believed that all meals should be earned through physical effort. He also contended, zealously like a drunk with a political point, that the third dimension would not be possible if it werent for the existence of water.

Quote:I think by the time a mozzie bites you and realises what kind of blood you have it's too late anyway for them to make the decision whether to bite you or not. Read the article, it says that different blood types dictate the odorants released by your skin. The mosquitos have sensitive protiens designed to detect these different odorants. Quote:We get that too. But they're usually fighting with bats as well, which makes it sorta entertaining. Fighting possums, fighting bats, fighting owls. It's all greatly amusing. WGMG: Arsenal, you're terrible. WGMGEM: Every time I cough violently, my modem disconnects itself.

Honestly, it may just be the pessimist in me but our league hopes went with Djourou's shoulder. I may just be depressed about losing to United though. Honestly I would rather have gone out to Orient.

Don't know why us losing would grind Pool fans gears. Who would you rather have more games in the title run in, us or United?

WGMG: Being told that I am letting the team down for being lazy. FFS I covered about 2-3 times the distance everyone else did in the first half, most of it in sprints. I think I am allowed to slow down to a walk in the second half especially since I am not able to go off because our bench was full of "injured" players.
