Oh, that _is_ rich. ;-) I think a lot of people would love to know just how they plan to make that happen. :-) - ferg -- "David W.

That's not a lot of detail, and the article only cites www.pandemicflu.gov as a reference. They don't appear to have published any detailed plan that Pres. Bush is evidently about to sign there. What is published there feels like background information, and is vaguer still. Anyone with more information on what they're talking about? [snip] -- "Fergie", a.k.a.
