* I've been a plague watcher all my life. You'd think the disease I'm most horrified by would be a hemorrhagic, like ebola, but it's not. It's rabies. It will likely always be rabies. Rabies is as close to zombies as real world diseases get. Even with modern medicine, if you are not treated early, before the symptoms are noticeable, you die

Rabies is definitely the top of my list for scariest disease of all, yes. On top of your list of the horrors of rabies, it is hugely, horribly, mind-shatteringly painful for the person who is turning into a shuffling bitey monster.

I've a good friend who is also interested in rabies. Some day, you must visit here and you will join us for tea and thorazine tuesdays, and talk about rabies. We often do.

I would love that. (The tea and disease talk, not the slowly turning into a shuffling, bitey monster).

It is nice. We talk about things that are interesting, rather than ones that are appropriate.

That is often the way of things, that interesting and appropriate are not the same.
