Hi Jim,
Thanks for your excellent site. I read it every day but Sunday and
enjoy most every article. However, while I believe it is important
to be as prepared as possible for pandemics and every other kind
of emergency, I'm convinced that the Avian "Bird" flu is
contrived and a needless scare. Bill Sardi, on his excellent website,
has numerous excellent articles, all well researched and documented,
showing that this crisis is hysteria
being fanned by government authorities (http://www.knowledgeofhealth.com/report.asp?story=Bird%20Flu%20Hysteria%20Fanned%20By%20Inaccurate%20News%20Reports.).
I heartily recommend this site to all your readers. - G.M. in North

JWR Replies: There may be some exaggeration and hyperbole, but I do believe that the A.A. flu threat is real. Don't count on on anyone in government saving the day. Make plans to provide for yourself. Make plans to hunker down in self-quarantine for an extended period, preferably in a lightly populated farming region.
