Swine flu is in Australia. A month late, but the numbers are set to grow. WA Health Department published a useful FAQ on swine flu symptoms and prevention.
And here are some interesting facts.
+ Traveling overseas? Insurance companies won’t cover you for swine flu.
+ And if you search for swine flu on Channel Nine web site, it’ll spit back at you, “Did you mean: swing fly?“

Swine flu.. swing fly… I guess it’s close enough for an Australian mainstream news network. You may end up travelling overseas without insurance and watching in-flight news about swing fly.

Myasthenia Gravis Support Group

www.myastheniawa.info is one of the web sites that came to mind, which I designed back in 2005. I remember two [seemingly very old] people walking into my office back in Mt Lawley and asking if I could do a web site for them. They just spent years researching Myasthenia Gravis and produced a Myasthenia Gravis Information booklet and Myasthenia Gravis Handbook that they wanted to make avaialble on the Internet. Back then I thought, “wow…” it was amazing to see the committment from these people to produce something useful that would help others suffering from Myasthenia Gravis.
The web site is here: http://www.myastheniawa.info/
