Good one, Jes!
Thanks, Reyn.
May you always have enough scallions.
It's not funny, it's serious. Just think -- what was going on when the polio vaccine was put in use? It was the red scare! We live in interesting times. Orwellian, perhaps. Now they're using flu -- and they've got to manufacture this avian flu scare to get everybody keyed into it. At the moment they're just putting the chips into old people and the other odd assortment of folks who line of for flu jabs now.
But when the bird flu scare ramps up, they'll put a vaccine on the market, and -- BANG! -- everybody's electronically numbered with a unique identification number assigned them by the alien overlords.
You mark my words. They took Uncle Bill Burroughs away a couple of years ago. They'll be back for the rest of us within a decade.
patiodog, you're not an X-Files fan by any chance, are you?
I was by association -- one of my housemates way back when was a hopeless TV sci-fi addict, so X-Files was a staple of the living room.
Nobody else really watched the tube there.

No.

He's an X-RAY fan.
My apologies if someone has posted this here already ...

The beauty of it (assuming 30 is supposed to be 300) is that he's reporting a 2% problem rate for both types of valve (16/800, 6/300)...

Never has the phrase "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" seemed so apt...
