ethsnafu Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Yup. That was all over the British media yesterday and I have to say I have known of this for some time as concern was growing within the scientific community. I'm keeping my fingers crossed this goes the way of H1N1 and so many other end-time-plagues that come and go without the catastrophe that is initially feared. Still it is worrying I have to say.

Earthnut Posted August 13, 2010 Author Share Posted August 13, 2010 Sounds like a biblical plague doesn't it? We keep asking ourselves, "What's next," and then poof, something shows up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
