On a lighter note: Interesting summary of Avian Flu in the WSJ today.
In a few cases, handlers of fighting birds got sick after giving mouth-to-mouth resuscitation to an injured bird.
That is dedication to the sport!!!
100 million infected birds at a minimum, only 121 human infections so far. Contact with blood, feces or French Chicken Kisses. YUCK
The new Bush plan calls for stockpiling 20 million doses of vaccines to combat flu. I think that they plan to allow democrat senators to get the first shots, especially the NY senators. Then any known Chicken Kissers can apply for the next round of shots.

Signatures are so yesterday!
