"The consequences of a biological attack are almost beyond comprehension. It would be 9/11 times 10 or a hundred in terms of the number of people who would be killed," former Sen. Bob Graham said.

I think that would actually be 9/11 = 0.81818181 (repeating) * 100 = 81.818181 (repeating). That is not too bad.

BRING IT ON!

Most of whom would not even be white, they would be in places without modern medicine. Africans, Indians. (The real ones, not the ones we annihilated with smallpox.) So really, you have to divide it by like one thousand. The Daily Show's American history textbook has a conversion table: 2,000 slaughtered Congolese = 500 drowned Bangladeshi = 13 Congolese castrated by witchcraft = 1 snipered American.

The last time we were attacked with anthrax we totally had to give those people anti-biotics. It was really hard core.

Just so long as it's not 9/11 times 2356...
