I've often wondered if anyone was keeping track of viral infections.
Myself, I've wondered about the geographic spread (as in, a [new]
virus shows itself here, then here, and then there).  Would make some
pretty plots, like the spread of killer bees ;)

For the record, before last fall my site, the University of Wyoming,
did not appear to have much in the way of virus activity - at least,
none that anyone bothered to report to us.  And also for the record,
the two we have now are Stoned and Ping Pong (Ping Pong appears to be
confined to the Law College - read in to that what you will! ;).  A
while back, Jerusalem put in an appearance, but it did not apparently
spread.  I've a couple of unconfirmed reports that MusicBug is in town
(via FTP is what I've heard).

I'm sorta curious about factors facilitating virus spread.  The
closest town to us is about 50 miles away - physically.
Electronically, well, ftp makes for a small world.  Our school size is
about 10,000.  What else might be pertinent?  Perhaps a profile could
be drawn up?
