This icing on the cake... a 6.0 Earthquake just hit Mexico City, what's next? three days of darkness, water turned to blood, first born dead?

Not a nice time to live in Mexico City.

US Govt saying nothing to worry about.
Just like when they say that UFO is just a weather balloon.
I think this is connected to N Korean rocket launch a few weeks ago.
It's a biological warfare attack.

Oh, please.

This is the second post in this thread claiming some sort of 'bio-terrorism,' and the facts do not bear it out.

What in the world would be the point of North Korea - or any nation - launching a rocket with a payload of swine flu into the atmosphere? There would be no guarantee that the virus would land on a 'foe' - there would not even be a guarantee that the virus woudln't infect that country's own citizens or political allies - or even the people who supposedly sent the virus into space.

Countries act in their own interests, and I'm having a real problem trying to understand how people think indiscriminately dropping flu virus would help any country's self-interest.

That`s one of the funniest things i`ve read today.Trust me,if they wanted to drop something,you can be sure it would be a hell of a lot worse than Swine Flu
