Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Backflung Jesse. I have no idea if any of it was helpful. It's an interesting thing you've got going there.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Emily, that's awesome!
Thanks, Allyson.

Babies? I need those.
Sadly, I don't know if they make them in adult human size.

Well, as I like to say, "With the help of the accomplished holy sages, who are worthy to be worshipped by the lords of the world, and of their disciples and disciples' disciples, who constitute the well-known series of preceptors, I glean from the great ocean of the knowledge of numbers a little of its essence, in the manner in which gems are picked from the sea, gold is from the stony rock and pearl from the oyster shell; and give out according to the power of my intelligence."
Okay, that wasn't me at all (it was Mahavira). But I'd like to have said it!

What Betsy said. I understand feeling like this is another randomly generated media panic... but H5N1 is finally getting coverage because CDC and WHO and OIE have been trying to get people here to pay attention for two years now.
It is not just some birds with the sniffles; the mortality rate in birds is nearly 100%. They usually die within a day. And then mammals, including humans, eat the dead birds, and they die. The fact that it kills so quickly might be the main thing that's kept it from spreading a lot faster. Which is not entirely comforting.
