Sure, I prefer Amoxicilin anyways! : )
   I personally would consider the bubonic plague a epidemic not really a
natural disaster. Just like Aids, it's a epidemic, there is nothing
"natural" about having sex with monkeys so therefore not a "natural
disaster".

P.S. in case you are not aware, they think aids started my some pervert
getting a little to personal with a monkey.


Thanks, Tom
