Much strange stuff going on.

I saw an interesting segment on CNN this morning about bounty hunters. Some big outfit has a couple of dozen bounty hunters of Middle Eastern background trying to nab the bad guys amongst us. There may be more of them from other companies. That wasn't clear to me.

The ones who spoke seemed very confident they could do the job, in part because they don't have to follow the same rules as law enforcement. They said they're not in it for the money, but of course would be pleased to take it.

I think it would be a hoot if they got the job done, but of course we will probably not know until long after the fact.

Yes, smallpox is much scarier. If we're freaking out like this over anthrax, the country would collapse at the prospect of smallpox. With our psyche, all Osama would have to do is spray Alar on our apples.
