Just read that 98% of both the circulating flu virii are resistant to the two classes of drugs used on them.

This could pass to the nasty strain easily.

So, flu gets bumped up in my list of Big Disasters, up there with rapid-spreading MSRA.

And, not only a single nuclear EMP could toast the US, but it turns out that the
sun's coronal mass ejections could too. So, there is a quick, simple antidote to (electricity-based) civilization.

Another prediction: there will never be a US president with a negro mother.
