I live by the Natural Rule of being a computer nerd i dont go out and be around people anyway so i don't need to worry about it till it comes to me lol

Button up the hatch! I'm sitting here with a runny nose and watery eyes...I can hardly see what I am typing. Apply plastic and duct tape on the doors, windows, and vents to keep those heat seeking germs out. lol

Now could I make a french onion soup, dip, or throw it in a salad, once it absorbed all my germs. Maybe I will throw it out if I don't first put a slice on my burger. I thought I was sick but now I have a show on in the background..."I took laxatives to loose weight". Watching TV is enough to make anyone sick these days!

I'm probably just Lucky, and I just expose myself to the elements on a regular basis.
I haven't been sick in almost 3 years (13 days away) (No flu shots)
I drink alcohol about 3 or 4 days a week
I don't eat fast food (4 years now)
I quit smoking cigarettes cold turkey (4 years now)
I get about 4 to 6 hours of sleep a night.
I normally don't wear much more than a hoodie/t-shirt(neverlongsleeves)/jeans outside regardless of the weather.

You evidently lead the good life!...Must be the booze, I may need to increase my weakly dosage. You could be the 'poster-person' promoting good health on the forum. Did you watch the vid on post #14? That is what good health can get you.

China Admits Existence Of 'Cancer Villages' In Report, As Pollution Concerns Mount

The Huffington Post | By Dominique Mosbergen Posted: 02/23/2013 1:47 pm EST | Updated: 02/23/2013 3:17 pm EST

As public discontent mounts in China over the country's worsening pollution problem and the government's lack of transparency about environmental concerns, Chinese authorities have acknowledged the existence of so-called "cancer villages" in a new report this week, according to multiple media outlets.
Agence France-Presse writes that the country's environment ministry made the admission in a report about pollution in which authorities acknowledged the dangers posed to human health by the harmful chemicals -- many of which are banned in developed nations -- that are produced and consumed in large quantities in the country.
"The toxic chemicals have caused many environmental emergencies linked to water and air pollution," the report said via the BBC.
"There are even some serious cases of health and social problems, like the emergence of cancer villages in individual regions," it continued.
AFP notes, however, that the report "did not elaborate on the phenomenon."
Over the past few years, the term "cancer village" has been used readily by the media, as environmentalists and concerned citizens have called attention to China's burgeoning cancer rates and deteriorating human health in areas near polluted waterways and factories.
For instance, investigative journalist Deng Fei used the term in 2009, when he published a map pinpointing dozens of toxic villages in China. (According to website TechinAsia.com, Deng most recently launched a campaign on Chinese microblogging site Weibo to raise awareness about the country's worsening water pollution problem.)
Cancer is now the country's "top killer," according to a recent report by China Network Television. Nevertheless, Ma Jun, a leading environmentalist in China, told The Telegraph that, despite China's environmental problems and growing cancer rate, the government typically avoids making a connection between pollution and disease.
Environmental lawyer Wang Canfa told the AFP that this new environmental report is likely the first time the term "cancer village" has been used in a ministry document.
Campaigners have lauded the new report -- which not only acknowledged that pollution could pose a risk to human health and the environment, but also outlined a plan to stop the use and production of dozens of toxic chemicals -- as a step in the right direction.
“I do think this shows a positive development,” Ma told The Telegraph. “The recognition of the existence of problems is the very first step and the precondition for us to really start solving these problems.”

It's not too surprising, considering that they product 90% of the rare Earth minerals that the world uses for tech. Unfortunately, the process used to extract these minerals causes a great deal of toxic waste. Gotta love less regulated countries... All that for cheaper overhead.
