Taking the theme of ganging up I think I'll become a raven in all this even
though I am (was) a committed pacifist. What about you Rick a pidgeon or a raven? |

It'll be interesting to see if anything happens to the crows.

Speculation is the only tool we have with a threat that can circle the globe in 30 days. Test results&news is slow.Factor in human conditions,politics, money&bingo!The truth!Facts come after the fact.

If these articles are accurate then there is no need to wait for the flu to show up in the Americas. It's already here. March will be a very telling month. |

Man, I can't help it, Rick, I am so impressed with your good work. I just have to say 'thank you' again, for about the third time tonight. Outstanding job as news moderator I don't know if there will ever be a followup article published on the pigeons in Juneau story, but they must have tested them for H5N1 by now.... |

I find it rather curious that the pigeons in Juneau developed an appetite for road salt just this year!
Haven't the Alaskan street depts. been de-icing roads/lots, etc., using salt for quite some time? Interesting God bless us all... Peggy in MN |

Thanks again, Rick. Your posts are invaluable. I am dealing with water in the desert and want any reliable formulas for adding chlorine to pool water to survive. Yech. But whatever it will take. Thanks. Lois
