I'm too lazy to write a book right now, but if I did, it would be a fictional (god I hope) bioterror story about a terrorist to who boarded a plane bound for the U.S and injested a deadly communicable disease as it landed, spreading it through the airport before he died, and eventually causing death panic, and chaos throughout much of the country.

It'd be a good movie too, with the Feds quarentining whole cities, etc.

So write it, and then give me my damned 10%.

Didn't Dustin Hoffman make a movie about this awhile back....only instead of terrorists, there were monkeys?

I think any movie can be made better with the addition of monkeys. :D

the one Tom Clancy book i read (ugh i want that part of my brain back!) was like this. it was ebola at an autoshow tho.

Ebola At An Autoshow would be a good band name.

It sounds good but I think robots and lasers would greatly enhance character development (there doesn't seem to be much of that in your story. Sorry, but critics like character development).

Yes. Think it was called "Outbreak".

And yes, 12 Monkeys follows a similar theme but with a fantastic Sci-Fi element thrown in.

On Google. It's amazing what sort of thing you can find there if you type in the right words. I typed in "robot laser" for that picture.

Things to try: pudding, hasselhoff, work, taco.
