Pig flu promises holidays for all

Load of old cock

The NHS 'round my way are now diagnosing Swine Flu' over the phone... the result being that my 2 year old was diagnosed with Hamthrax... for being a bit pukey, and possibly being in the same building once where some bloke saw a pig who looked a bit under the weather.

If anyone's interested, I have 4days worth of Tamiflu going spare now.

So, at the same time NASA find Perchlorate on Mars, an Dutch research group published a paper that basically says, we've solved the structure of the microbial enzyme responsible for perchlorate metabolism in terrestrial bacteria.... can it really be a coincidence?
