My fear is that this isn’t even the big one. 

Ebola ever mutates and gets easier to spread?

Things are going to get ugly.

I actually can't believe it has stayed more or less contained around the Congo/DRC. WHO has 60 people for all of Africa with a few ngo's sprinkled about.

Just a quick update on my daughter. Saturday was a really tough day, she was a little furnace and really felt terrible. Yesterday her fever broke and she actually ate something. This morning she woke

I would attribute it to that area of the world not really being an economic hub. China has so much traffic going in and out that anything that pops up there will be bound to travel.

the thing about Ebola is that it is so deadly it actually controls itself to a point.  With such a high mortality rate it actually burns itself out quicker and is harder to spread than something like this.  Of course until it mutates.....

I actually was off the site for 3 days.  This place was always different than the rest of the internet mess for the most part. Not "offended" by the language and stupid porn postings people do on here, just don't want to wade thru it when I am trying to look for news on some people's families that are nurses etc doing some great things.  Just a personal preference not to have to read people arguing that they know better than others etc . It becomes like the rest of the internet that I tend to also ignore.  If I owned the site I would clean a little house, but I don't so my decision to use it less is what I do.  Some great folks on here keep me around. But I also notice they are posting less and less and am guessing they feel about the same way.  The slurs, swearing and gay porn I can do without. When I've decided I've had enough of it completely I will just be gone. Again not offended it's just not why I am here.  So been using it less and honestly haven't missed it that much.  Is what it is.  But it's getting old for me and fishing and turkey season is coming.  

perfectly summarizes how I feel too. 

Thanks Rob. I second this.

Basically.

As contagious as CV with the same pre symptomatic period and as deadly as Ebola.  But it only kills 20% of affected people, another 20% recover and the rest are more or less fine  

End times.

Nobody should be banned for cuss words , you cant tell me that one evening of heated arguments is a reason to ban anybody . The children reading it excuse doesnt fly with me either .

How about all the homophobic slurs? Should we support that?

What's up with that?! I would Like to have a Dove Season being primarily a Small Game Hunter. A Mourning Dove Season is long past due..

Mike and four season whitetails used to go back and forth a lot.  

 

Mike was pushing for it and still is.  I was on his website the other day.  I commend his passion.  He is actually doing something about it.

After a number of years, I am Still trying to figure out how poor Mike Rossi got Banned. Too much on Doves, I know--- but the content was interesting.

Mike Rossi? That guy who publicly posted private details about the site owner during an epic meltdown and then asked to be permanently "logged out"? That Mike Rossi?

Anyone care to talk about wuhan flu? I’ve read up some on Spanish flu and apparently it’s thought there were two waves. A bit of a die down in summer months and a return in fall of a horrid even worse disease, sounds like mutation.  Makes me wonder if that’ll happen with wuhan flu.

Looks like, I am Screwed

I've made this offer to you before and it still stands. If you can get up here for a day or two, you are welcome to hunt my place (as long as we're still not all locked down with the virus).

I'm a lousy turkey hunter, maybe you could give me a tune-up.
