Don't Drink the Water I

The Associated Press reports that large numbers of dead hogs have been dumped in the Fujiang River in eastern China. It is as yet unknown what the cause of the mortality is, but some think that it is an as yet unreported outbreak of streptococcus that led to the porkers' demise.

People have been advised that the water from the river is safe to drink if boiled-but that is what we here in Iowa call 'soup', and we'll pass on that course, thank you.
