Howard Taylor, he of web comic Schlock Mercenary, has a post on his blog about re-naming Novel Swine Flu Virus H1N1, because, after all, "H1N1 sounds like a droid out of Star Wars."
Hamthrax
Hogthrax
Spamthrax
Tuporkulosis
Porklio
If it does indeed get as bad as some have suggested, it will be the Aporkalypse! Hognarok! Porkageddon!
The hubby picked up on this and has decided hamthrax is the best word to use, so that's what we've settled on :D
