Russian researchers pose for a picture after reaching the subglacial Lake Vostok in Antarctica on February 5, 2012. Russian scientists believe they have found a wholly new type of bacteria in the mysterious subglacial Lake Vostok in Antarctica.

Didn't I see this in a movie with some Norwegians?.......

I think I saw this movie on "Creature Features" on Saturday night at midnight in 1963 or so.

If the movies are any guide, this is the first step in an outbreak that kills off 99% of the human population on Earth.

More correctly, if real life is any guide...I’m recalling my brush with Ebola virus in Zaire. The nasty little bug was formerly confined to remote areas in the African bush, virtually unknown to the outside world because it killed off its hosts too quickly to allow for transmission to urban areas. No more. Improved transportation systems now allow it to hop a truck to Kinshasa, and board a flight to Europe, and bingo! Ebola outbreak in Paris.

With all the crazy crap going on in the world I’ve been looking up expecting the giant asteroid at any moment.
I guess I should have been looking at Russians on the South Pole.

Yes, that one starred Kurt Russell. There’s a new one, 2011, that is a pre-quel to that one, showing what happened at the Norwegian camp before it went to the American camp in the dog being chased by the Norwegians in the helicopter at the beginning...........

If the liberals get ahold of it, it will turn into a sexually transmitted disease.
