That something is the deadly parasite. “Do we let it go,” he continued, “and have hundreds of thousands of people die yet change everybody’s opinion of global warming? Or, do we quarantine it and save lives?

Anyways, that Woolly is packing a deadly parasite that has laid dormant

Shouldn't that be "lain dormant?" (/nitpick)

Definitely laid.

Even dormants need love.

Besides, it's Hollywood. Sex sells.

Wasn’t there an X-Files episode about something like this?

Yeah, it's called "Darkness Falls." One of my favorite episodes of the X Files.

Sooooo, did the Woolly Mammoth dig his way down into the ice or did the earth get colder and iceier after it was warmer when he died? Is the earth returning to its natural temperature? Is mankind helping Mother Gaia?

I thought Darkness Falls was about the insect swarm (still a great episode, regardless) but the one I’m thinking about in particular was very early in the series, maybe the 7th or 8th episode, and there was a parasite buried in some ice somewhere, then a sample melted and it wound up in a border collie...

I haven’t heard anyone claiming that ebola is caused by global warming.

I have. late last week on one of the "alphabet" networks.

(My wife flips thru the channels, usually when a BHO commercial comes on....)

Of course, it's all Bush, Cheney, Haliburton, Global Warming, Climate Change fault....

Well when you think of NASA scientists wanting to bring back micro-organisms from Mars for which we have no natural defense, someone needs to come along with a ruler and smack them across their hands.

Anyways, that Woolly is packing a deadly parasite that has laid dormant (and hungry we might add) for thousands of years.

...lain dormant....

Each drop of ocean water contains thousands to millions of viruses, many of which have been floating around for a long, long time. Maybe we should all eschew summers at the beach.
