Kaiser to study alien bacteria. Dang. I knew that water tasted funny.
The Kaiser study will perform medical exams - including dermatological tests, blood analysis and psychiatric evaluations - at offices in Oakland. Researchers hope to carefully examine skin biopsies and any fibers or other materials that patients report growing out of their skin.
"This is a descriptive study. There are no hypotheses to be tested," said Joe Selby, director of Kaiser's Northern California division of research. "We recognize that many people in the United States are currently suffering with symptoms and they are very frustrated as to whether there is evidence of their disease."

It's beyond desperation at this point.
Quoted: Worse, Palin's routine attacks on the media have begun to spill into ugliness. In Clearwater, arriving reporters were greeted with shouts and taunts by the crowd of about 3,000. Palin then went on to blame Katie Couric's questions for her "less-than-successful interview with kinda mainstream media." At that, Palin supporters turned on reporters in the press area, waving thunder sticks and shouting abuse. Others hurled obscenities at a camera crew. One Palin supporter shouted a racial epithet at an African American sound man for a network and told him, "Sit down, boy."
