Enough of the destruction. I hate writing about it, but it's real. Well, creation is real too. I've just finished writing about what we're up against - now read these next two articles and see what Osama Bin Laden and his ilk are up against.
Let's start with University of Central Florida researcher Henry Daniell. He thinks he may have a way to produce anthrax vaccine using tobacco and tomato plants. The vaccine has reportedly been proven to work in the university lab.
"You can grow 200 acres of tobacco and produce vaccines for the whole country," Daniell said. The vaccine from tobacco plants must be taken intravenously, but the anti-anthrax tomato can be eaten.
Yeah, you read that right. Just imagine: "Looks like Saddam just detonated another anthrax missile, dear. Better break out that special jar of Emeril's sauce, I'll start the spaghetti..."
And a big BAM! to you too, Saddam.
As a Republican President I'd be tempted to fund the tobacco option instead, if only to drive the liberals absolutely berserk. But I remember watching this a few days ago with my girlfriend, and falling down on the couch because I was laughing so hard. She didn't get it, so she asked.
"Osama is doomed. Doooomed. He's up against a culture that can take one of his best bioweapon options, and break out the Ragu. I'd sooo love to see his face the day they explain that one to him."

Here are some quick tips for adding simple Textile formatting to your comments, though you can also use proper HTML tags:
*This* puts text in bold.
_This_ puts text in italics.
bq. This "bq." at the beginning of a paragraph, flush with the left hand side and with a space after it, is the code to indent one paragraph of text as a block quote.
To add a live URL, "Text to display":http://windsofchange.net/ (no spaces between) will show up as Text to display. Always use this for links - otherwise you will screw up the columns on our main blog page.
