Speaking of micro-organisisms, DarkSyde has a wonderful post up at Kos about the bedbugs, the Black Death, and Halloween (among other things). Read the whole thing, but this sentence leaped out at me:

Vivid and telling. And if you change two phrases, even more telling:

While to one another we are lovers, strangers, friend or foe, to corporations we’re nothing but walking meat markets: you and I are human resources.
