This Is What I Think.
Wednesday, April 23, 2014
Ah, damnit. That was months ago. Now you tell me.
And some other stuff. This note does not correspond to the flow of the plot as I watch it tonight. I am thinking also about the one time before I have watched this film which was something I saw only on this DVD.
And. Okay. How do I justify the existence of this blog now. An addiction? No, that's not it. Wishful thinking? Time delay? Wishful thinking?
THERE IS NO ONE OUT THERE!!!!!
WHY AM I STILL MAKING NOTES HERE!!!!!!!!!!

Colonial Germ Warfare
by Harold B. Gill Jr.
The humanizing of War! You might as well talk of the humanizing of Hell...As if war could be civilized! If I'm in command when war breaks out I shall issue my order—"The essence of war is violence. Moderation in war is imbecility. Hit first, hit hard, and hit everywhere!"
—Sir Reginald Bacon, The Life of Lord Fisher of Kilverstone, Admiral of the Fleet
When armies get into desperate situations, the usual "civilized" rules of warfare often are thrown out the window. In the 1520s Machiavelli wrote: "When it is absolutely a question of the safety of one's country, there must be no consideration of just or unjust, of merciful or cruel, of praiseworthy or disgraceful; instead, setting aside every scruple, one must follow to the utmost any plan that will save her life and keep her liberty."
During Pontiac's uprising in 1763, the Indians besieged Fort Pitt. They burned nearby houses, forcing the inhabitants to take refuge in the well-protected fort. The British officer in charge, Captain Simeon Ecuyer, reported to Colonel Henry Bouquet in Philadelphia that he feared the crowded conditions would result in disease. Smallpox had already broken out. On June 24, 1763, William Trent, a local trader, recorded in his journal that two Indian chiefs had visited the fort, urging the British to abandon the fight, but the British refused. Instead, when the Indians were ready to leave, Trent wrote: "Out of our regard for them, we gave them two Blankets and an Handkerchief out of the Small Pox Hospital. I hope it will have the desired effect."

Cheever: He grew it.
Hextall: He tried antibodies and immunological MAC outlines like we did but the key was a fetal-bat cell line from Geelong. We didn't have it.
Cheever: He grew it in a BSL-3. Ally, what the hell was he doing working it in a BSL-3?
Hextall: Ignoring me.
Cheever: Ahh! He's going to publish. Shit. [snaps fingers] What does he want?
Hextall: Ah - ah - a box of cigars.
