Frosty

Howdy!  let me know when the roll indicates I'm beginning to slip into hyperglycemic coma and I can post a few gibberish posts and one that slips away...Funny thing the first post apocalyptic book I ever read, Alas Babylon, (and one of the first written though I believe "On the Beach predates it slightly...), anyway it also had a diabetic that died due to the lack of insulin.  Most of the other newer ones have included that as well (like Lucifer's Hammer).  Funny we have a friend who actually researched how to extract insulin from animals as she told us her "survival plan" included taking both my wife and I out in the boonies as we had so many skills (and books).  Very Sweet of her but too much a load in a survival situation; I'd have to check out fairly early.
