Mosquitoes, or French Scientists, Cash In on X2 Craze
How convenient. French scientists have determined that the mosquitoes that carry West Nile are
mutants. Just at the same time that
X-Men 2: X-Men United is atop the box office
again. Sure, these scientists claim this is based on scientific evidence and the announcement is designed to further the understanding of the West Nile epidemic.
Furthermore, the scientists explain their trademarking of the "MassKillto" super villain suitable for t-shirts was inadvertent, and that they meant to send the comic-book style graphic to the magazine
Nature.
