Bird Flu

I think Lileks perfectly captures how anyone should react to the possible bird flu pandemic. You should be very, very worried. Or not. Maybe you should think it's all silly over-reaction and (as Bill Maher does) decide it's just another invented culture of fear panic. It's funny, 'cause it's ducks. It's no funny, 'cause your grandmother could die.

Dunno. The important thing is, no matter what happens, I don't want to be quoted later as having dismissed the warnings of this terrible tragedy. Or over-reacting to this Y2K-like silliness. Whichever.
