    A disturbing amount of healthy younger people died from the Aus flu this year.

    This is a good article explaining the science of why some people with no underlying health issues die:

    Please post often over the coming days to verify your Non-Walker status. If it jumps to your neighbor would that be World War NZ?

    Yes because in America unless a sport is dumbed down (see also: how you play golf) you can't enjoy it. :p

    As a fellow American, I am with a Brit on this one. Douglas Adams:
    "Of all the races in the Galaxy, only the English could possibly revive the memory of the most horrific wars ever to sunder the Universe and transform it into what I'm afraid is generally regarded as an incomprehensibly dull and pointless game. "

    So....should my wife and I not take the holiday we were planning in spring to British Isles? Here's to the hoping the NHS, WHO, MIB and BPRD can bring this thing to heel.
