" SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) - At least 600 people were sickened
after eating at a popular biker bar and restaurant over
the weekend, health officials said Friday.

" The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
was notified of the outbreak of gastrointestinal
illness because people who ate at the Dinosaur
Bar-B-Que may have come from across the country,
said Cynthia Morrow, health commissioner of
Onondaga County.

"Stool samples of sickened customers have so far ruled out bacteria as
the cause. That means the cause is likely viral and could be spreading
through air particles, Morrow said.

Restaurant patrons from throughout central New York and as far away as
Massachusetts, New Jersey, Vermont and California have contacted the
health department with reports of symptoms. Some were sickened after
eating at the restaurant, while others became ill after being exposed
to those who'd been to the restaurant, health officials said.

The most common symptoms include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal
cramps and chills lasting 12-48 hours."

Sounds like it may not be food poisoning at all. Somebody working with
the 2 day flu perhaps.

Sounds like what hit $dayjob a few weeks ago. It was either the
walking dead trying to hack up a lung or the sitting dead trying
to blast enamel off the toilets. Got the whole darn office.

So far all I got was a hacking cough that lasted about three days.
I attribute the quick recovery to single malt scotch and lots of
home made BBQ.

Looks like Dinosaur BBQ opened for lunch today and they've reported that
this outbreak hasn't stopped anybody. They actually scrubbed the place
twice.

That won't stop me from going there--might consider walking over for lunch
sometime this week!

Arg! You never clean a BBQ restaurant, it removes the seasoning.

That which doesn't kill you probably tastes bad.
