If they're going to test vector dispersal methods, they should be doing it over Mexico.
![]() At least, now we know what's wrong with Aktungbby. ![]() ![]() ![]()

It's not just the military who puts us at risk with questionable 'tests' and 'safeguards'. In the post-WWII US, there was a great polio scare, not to be resolved until the early 1950s with the introduction of the Salk Vaccines. In the intervening period, US chemical industries (those of us old enough remember the slogan "Better Living Through Chemistry") sold various state and local governments on the idea of using various chemicals to try to "cure" the polio problem. The most insidious of those efforts was the very liberal application of DDT, an insecticide now banned in the US and many other countries due its toxicity. DDT was sprayed from trucks driving down the streets, spray the chemical into the air. Here is a newsreel of the time depicting the spraying:
Please note, while we may be able to attribute Aktungbby's present state to biological warfare test exposure, Neal is far too young to have been affected by the Texas DDT spraying shown in the newsreel... ![]() Like Aktungbby, I was a resident of San Francisco (actually born and raised there) and was also present during the time period. Believe me, there were chemical substances with far greater effects abundant on the streets of SF during that time... <O>

And then there's good old Thalidomide, which helped advance technology in artificial limbs and exoskeletons significantly...
