it's not harsh at all - if you're of that line of thinking we might as well rewrite the history books erasing all references to the truly awful 'Spanish Flu' pandemic of 1918
It's spanish flu because when it happened the spanish press wasn't blocked because of WW1 and spoke about it, :P it didn't appear there.
I myself don't care about the name, but if people like the chinese start fooling around with us, oh well, I'll start thinking in bad ways to make them eat tacos without using their mouths....
Haha, true true
Spoke with my mum this morning, she was scared tho. After some discussion it turned out she had just watched one news program the last two weeks, and not been on the computer.
