<it would kill most of your family and friends too but if you're hellbent and suicidal in a big way...>

Jim Jones, Heaven's Gate and Al Qaeda Martyrs' Brigade would be thrilled at the news. So would the fundamentalist Armageddon scriptualist second coming MADmen [who are not exactly low profile politically in the USA].

Perhaps if the police stopped wasting their time trying to catch dope smokers, cocaine snorters, opium smokers and heroin injectors, who only harm themselves, and put 100 guards on each microbiologist [that's 30 per shift around the clock per microbiologist], and the NSA tapped their phones and cyberspace links, we could avoid a sars/chicken flu vaccine-immune bug being set loose.

It could be quite harmful to people, but people adapt, they'd spread out, they'd stop randomly kissing each other, they'd bow at a distance like the Japanese, they'd travel in individual transport and do a lot of their dealings via cyberspace and wear a N99.9 mask when on the street.
