Pandemics: Swine Flu... or just swine-ness??

I'm Just Wondering...

The synchronicity of events is sometimes a bit wierd.

Today, the news broke a story of the "Swine Flu Variant" virus.

Yes, it's terrible. Over 600 cases with possibly 60 dead in Mexico City, many healthcare workers (my brothers and sisters!)... Mexico City health officials think the incidence (# people sick) may climb to 1500 by next week... here in San Diego, we are one of the US epicenters...

Track all this on a good site without Apocalyptic panic www.cdc.gov

Those of us who read Laurie Garrett's "The Coming Plauge" know this is not alarmist, but the normal emergence of a new disease in the 21st century. There will be many, many others to come.

However, the synchronicity comes with the release of a study this week from one SDSU professor (with another author from Texas) regarding how 'narcissism epidemic' has taken over the culture, particulary in women.
