I really think the only people that should have it are the at risk people - medical professionals and military personel.

Ditto. (jab... GAH)

Peace,

*puts on tinfoil hat* it's the mark of the devil!

but, um, hm. i don't think smallpox is much of a risk right now, knock on wood.

According to a PHD MD I work with, the Russians have tinkered with their strains of smallpox a bit & have made it pretty nasty.

always felt I was going to see civilization as we know it change (remember? ) and I never really could say what it was I thought was going to happen.

I remember. Every time the white house and congress are run by the same spendthrifty elitest club, R or D, and with a whipped and/or negligent judical branch, government accelerates its push toward socialism (or fascism).

We're definitely in for "strange times", smallpox or no.

Look at the reactions. I choose not.

NWO, it's already started.

I personally wouldn't want to get it unless it was required. The thought that Iraq may have it doesn't scare me enough into getting it.
