Did Martinus cure ebola, or have I missed something? Something about Canada?


Thread summation:  Timmay sucks, Marti sucks, the news media sucks, and Canada sucks but did cure Ebola.  However, the US bought the cure from them and probably won't let anybody else use it.

Put it this way- if the vaccine was developed in the US, I wouldn't feel the need to mention that every time I brought it up.  :P

Weird.  Every time I talk on the telephone I say 'hello thank for using this American invented form of communication'.

As well you should.  Remind people we didn't *just* invent torture and racism.  We developed some good stuff as well.

What has America ever done for us?

Also, we invented the missionary position.

Aren't you people bunch of cinephiles? No one got the reference?

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

Nah, that was the Romans. Along with sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh-water system, and public health.  :P

Nuclear warfare too, but the world seems rather ungrateful on that score.

We may have given Japan a couple bombs, but the secrets of how to make more were taken from us.  :mad:

Also fewer people to take care of, which mitigates that loss a little.
