SARS causative agent confirmed
[Misc.]
@ 01:15 PM
The causative agent for SARS has been confirmed as a coronavirus that has never been seen in humans (conspiracy theory raises its ugly head?). Now that we have the culprit, I really hope the scientists can come up with diagnostic kits and cure for the patients. Only then will people here breath or cough properly!
Nice poem
[Literature]
@ 11:32 AM
Just glanced on a poem by a guy named Alok at Rediff's Message board. It goes:
You bring me love on the wings of a tomahawk
You bring me freedom in chains.
I should wave my hand in praise
But now I have no hands to raise.
I have no feet to walk the miles
Why, I have even lost my smiles.
Orphaned in one flash of your giant might
Co-lateral damage, you call my plight.
My history trampled beneath your boot
You lay waste my treasures, for loot.
And still you ponder
Why I wave no star-spangled banner?
I cannot, I shall not, I have not the will
For and my throat is parched and my spirit hungers still.
It kind of reflects my opinion on the war.
