Health Expert Shuts Down Fear Mongering Fox News H

My cats will appreciate that, Hachi

Ahhh, is oneflu in CA too?  I feel left out.  Can your pigeons make it to TN?

I've been down the street at EI and missed all of this. First of all thank you Germ Nerd and John for jumping in in my defense. Though when I re read my post I can see why some would have a negative reaction to it. It is an extremist view of the world. But that word is often unjustly nitpicked. I'm also extremely into fishing and dreaming of panning for gold. My super realism art is of the most extreme. I've written an extreme amount. Guaranteed more than but a very tiny handful of people. Millions of words. I'm extremely handsome. OK thats a lie. I've lived through some extreme situations in life. Both good and bad. So it is no wonder I sometime tend to have extreme views of some aspects of life and express them in ways some people find to be over the top. I can't argue against that. But when it comes to this situation you hit on Prairie, let me tell you, I've been personally sickened numerous times by people around me who I have repeatedly tried to school about infectious diseases and cross-contaminants, what those organisms are, how tiny, contagious, how they are transmitted, WHY, what the dangers are, etc and it just seems almost no one around me for all these years seems to get it or care at all. My own family even. It has been appearing to me that there are two types of people in this world as relates to this subject: those who get it -but don't want it, to be sickened, and those who really don't get it but go around ignorantly infecting orhers. I am sick right now. Have been for days. Once again infected by nothing less than ignorance that I tried so hard ward off with some ATFesque intelligence but once again was denied. I tend to see the whole dern world this way. Unrelenting. You don't want me bringing you some steak in a post-apocalyptic world because I'm extreme in assigning blame unjustly? That's fine. Your views I respect. I will give it to Johnray. If Trish doesn't need it more first. I'm willing to share and help and protect not those who did the best to prep for this potentially catastrophic event of our time but those who enlightened themselves about it and did the best they had the means to do to prepare for it and many of them are in fact AFTers.

Hi Onefluover.
Thank you for the clarification. It's apparent we both feel strongly.

haha nope, oneflu is in Utah, I think, but has family in CA lol I think the pigeons can make it that far, not sure how long it'd take though! I'd give them red bull, but it doesn't give them extra wings.

Meals on wings...

Did you read what was said? It may not be what he meant but what was written what's what I reacted to. I expect he certainly can speak for himself.

I don't have time to ask people exactly what they mean. I read it as it is posted.
What he/she posted was offensive.

Ooh - that was good

In contrast to the US government, the nation of India is discussing shutting off all migration from afflicted nations, period!  

I wrote about 50 in there.

It simply flies in the face of logic not to ban air traffic from African countries effected with Ebola. The best way to stop the spread of Ebola is by containment, how can allowing potential Ebola carriers to board airplanes and fly around the world stop the containment? That's like saying the best way to stop a ship from sinking is to put more holes in the hull to allow more water in!
