Very good, but once you have symptoms you have a 50% of dying.

F2,
So the naked people in the SF trees may have bird flu?

I heard another symptom is capricious banning of long time posters on message boards?

'Mo...or 50% chance of living? Is the wine glass half full/empty?

Also, I understand you should contact your doctor immediately if you notice a small outcropping of feathers in your armpits.

How can you tell that birds like shopping at sales?

They're always saying "cheep-cheep".

If a woodpecker mistakes my house for a tree, does that mean it is confused and must have bird flu? Can I shoot the sucker and save all of humanity?
