Haven't heard much about it lately but it is a big problem here. People were told to get rid of their bird feeders to help keep it spreading and there was supposedly a shortage of turkeys at Thanksgiving and Christmas.

As usual, you slid a little humor into the history/biology lesson to keep those of us with ADD tuned into your teaching. I always wondered how a particular, un-named past president got so orangy, and I always thought it was his bile backing up, but now I know the truth. Thanks.

I have always liked Mr. Eastwood's movies, and like Mickey Spillane's Mike Hammer books, you will never learn a thing - but still, great escapes from the reality of global warming and America's fixation on sports. As long as the TV works, who cares about millions dying of starvation and disease - please pass the fried chicken.

Why did Mozart not like chickens? Because they only talk about Bach, Bach, Bach.

How has the flock count been affected by avian flu?

Clint Eastwood has had quite a lengthy career . . . . .

They really don't mess around with avian flu where I live in the world. I wonder how the precautions are in North America, I heard there's been an issue there too recently?
