Your excellent detective story about the emergence of avian flu [MEDICINE, Feb. 23] was an important reminder that the most threatening bioterrorist may not be a belligerent Iraqi, a lunatic cult or a white-supremacist group but nature itself.

The Holnists are led by one General Bethlehem (Will Patton), a ruthless former copy machine sales clerk who found his true calling in fascist leadership after nuclear war vaporized society. Because he knows five or six lines of Shakespeare...
