Well, what a surprise, the UK authorities have conceded that they cannot control the spread of Swine Flu! Amazing, Nature beats Man, again! Apparently, the computer models predict that it will lead to 100,000 new cases per week once the epidemic gets into full swing. It will be interesting to see whether the models are as accurate as those predicting Climate Change effects! I'm not aiming to belittle the potential seriousness of the virus, but I do find it amazing that 'we' always think that we can beat Mother Nature and then are surprised when we lose again!
Your Friday teasers are: -
- Who took command of the Continental Army in the American W
ar of Independence today in 1775? - Musician Vince Clarke (right) was born today in 1961 and teamed up with singer Alison Moyet to form which 80's pop duo?
- Today in 1938, which steam locomotive set a world speed record of 126 mph? (the record still stands for a steam locomotive)
