Yes.  I supplied references on this for you all on just this, so that there
wouldn't be endless pointless retard speculation and all that.

Or perhaps not, Mr Make-It-Up-As-If-It-Were-Evidence.

Eh?  What the hell are you gibbering about?  There is no such urgent concern.
The lyrics were given, I pointed out the rather obvious, and the reaction has
been urgent concern to spin control the song as much as possible, along with
repeated lies about what I did say.

You're lying.  For starters, the smallpox itself was but a small part of the
errors I identified.  Deal with it, eh?
