Anonymous Coward User ID: 101513 United States 04/25/2010 02:46 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The article cites 1999 as when it appeared first, which is when the UG99 wheat fungus began also. When molds collide they either combine or one wins. A new mutated "chytrid fungus" is killing off frog populations and bats and bees. All sorts of crops have fungal problems now. The seas are dying, rotting, turning to domoic acid, oxygen depleted, "become as the blood of a dead man" (Rev 16) from red tide stinking slime. I've no doubt, it's doom, and the fault of govs purposely mutating super bio weapons in the radiation of space. Nature gives no waivers for criminal negligence or stupidity. Buh bye! Get yer afterlife insurance here! JJD ††††††††††††††††††††††††††††††††††††††† |
