JMS saying he might be involved is like saying you might be president someday. Till you do it, it's just talk. Besides, Executive Producer is simply a way of getting a known name involved in something, not like he would necessarily have had much say in it. He could be EP of ANY Uwe Boll movie and it would still suck ass.
Uhm, hate to throw a wrench into your message (actually I don't but thought I'd be polite;) ) JMS had nothing to do with Global Frequency. it was directed by Nelson McCormick, written by Warrne Ellis, and produced by Mark Burnett. To bad it got canned before it got to the public, I found the pilot to be not half bad with a certain amount of potential (much more than Threshold or Surface). Go find the torrent if you haven't seen it yet.
I'm not sure what cave you were living in in 2003, but; a) SARS was hard to detect, it looked like a lot of other bugs b) as of Apr 25, 2003, there were suspected SARS cases in atleast 1/2 of all the US states http://spatialnews.geocomm.com/features/sars/sars_ apr252003.pdf
I don't know how many of those suspected cases turned out to be the real thing, but saying that it never made it to the US is a crock and you should get your head out of the sand.
I don't know about fanbois, lets see, cmdrtaco wrote a bitch/whine fest about his forced name change, and then there was the interview with the WoW dev team that turned into a PR piece and got torn apart right from the start.
----- Tamiflu is for treating adults, adolescents, and pediatric patients 1year of age and older with the flu whose flu symptoms started within the last day or two. Tamiflu is also used to reduce the chance of getting the flu in people age 13 and older who have a higher chance of getting the flu because they spend time with someone who has the flu. Tamiflu can also reduce the chance of getting the flu if there is a flu outbreak in the community. -----
So far as I understand it, the reasoning isn't to take profit away from Roche. The problem is that while Tamiflu is very effective at preventing the flu, there simply isn't enough should H5N1 mutate into a human -> human transferable virus. A single dose of Tamiflu will protect a single person from contracting the flu for a single day. Given that the typical flu season is roughly 100 days, give or take, each person would need 100 doses to protect themselves. Right now, the Canadian gov't has stockpiled approximately 22 million doses. As of July of this year, Canada's population, according to the CIA world factbook, is 32,805,041 people, that's less than 1 dose per person. Canada alone would need 100x the current amount to protect the majority of it's population from a pandemic of H5N1, let alone the rest of the world. The patent would be broken to allow for more companies to create the drug, rather than Roche alone who simply can't meet the current demand.
Didn't MyIE2 become Maxthon due to being caught embedding spyware and wanting to get away from the known bad name? I seem to recall something along this line but can't remember for certain if it was fact or just my over active imagination tweaking a partial memory.

Me, I was hoping he'd reprise the role when they got rid of Timothy Dalton. t could have been a great movie, Sean Connery comes in, kicks Daltons ass for being a shitty Bond, leaving him dead at the end of the movie where and MI6 hunting for a replacement.

Personally, I think Pavlov's Bell would be most appropriate, all the geek modders and modder wannabees just started drooling with this announcment :)
Don't forget Canada, quite a few award winning wineries there.
Just so you know, it was released today.

You can please some of slashdot all of the time and all of slashdot some of the time, but you can't please all of slashdot all of the time.

Actually, Tamiflu has also been found to reduce your chance of contracting the flu. This is why it is in such high demand right now.
