Organic salad recalled, dead bat found inside
-Two people in Florida ate some salad from a container before discovering the remains of a dead bat inside of it, officials said.
The bat — a Mexican free-tailed bat — was sent last week to a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention laboratory for rabies testing because the animals in the United States can sometimes carry the disease, the agency said in a statement on Saturday. However, the bat was too badly decomposed to definitively determine whether it had rabies.
Transmission of rabies by eating a rabid animal is “extremely uncommon,” the agency said, adding that the virus does not survive for long outside the infected animal.
Florida health officials were evaluating the people who ate the salad. They reported being in good health and neither exhibited any signs of rabies, the C.D.C. said.
“In this circumstance, the risk of rabies transmission is considered to be very low, but because it isn’t zero, the two people who ate salad from the package that contained the bat were recommended to begin post-exposure rabies treatment,” it said.

On the positive side, if they are billionaires it may lead them to train in multiple forms of martial arts, creates lots of crime fighting gadgets, don some Kevlar and maks, and start fighting crime.

Who needs a kevlar suit when they are a bat ? Just fly around in random circles.

At one time they booted about 100 angry atheists from carm and they formed a new forum called aarm (atheist something). A few Christians showed up including myself. I didn't mind the tough crowd (tougher than the blasphemers but more well behaved I suppose) and I'm sure that half of them thought that I thought that I was all the above in this thread and more. It was sort of "unbelief inc". They couldn't get anywhere though, which must have angered them greatly.

The bat ability is not enough when those bullets are flying at you.

DANG! - I have purchased those "so-called" Organic Salad products before, thinking I'm eating "healthy" and more sensibly...
Uh, yeah, riiiiight!
Oh, and how the heck does a bat get into a clamshell full of lettuce? - Maybe it flew into the processing warehouse? - Or was it planted?
