"In the days before volcanoes were invented, lava had to be hand carried down from the mountains and poured on the sleeping villagers.
This took a great deal of time."

> Three women in North Florida turned up at hospitals over a 5-day
> period, all with the same symptoms.
>
> Fever, chills, and vomiting, followed by muscular collapse, paralysis
> and finally, death.
>
> There were no outward signs of trauma.
>
> Autopsy results showed toxicity in the blood. These women did not
> know each other and seemed to have nothing in common. It was
> discovered, however, that they had all visited the same Restaurant
> (Olive Garden) within days of their deaths. The Health Department
> descended on the restaurant , shutting it down. The food, water, and
> air conditioning were all inspected and tested, to no avail.
>
> The big break came when a waitress at the restaurant was rushed to
> the hospital with similar symptoms. She told doctors that she had been
> on vacation, and had only went to the restaurant to pick up her check.
>
> She did not eat or drink while she was there, but had used the restroom.
>
> That is when one toxicologist, remembering an article he had read,
> drove out to the restaurant, went into the restroom and lifted the
> toilet seat .
>
> Under the seat, out of normal view, was a small spider. The spider
> was captured and brought back to the lab, where it was determined to
> be the Two-Striped Telamonia (Telamonia dimidiata), so named because
> of its reddened flesh color.&nb sp; This spider's venom is extremely
> toxic, but can take several days to take effect. They live in cold,
> dark, damp climates, and toilet rims provide just the right atmosphere.
>
> Several days later a lawyer from Jacksonville showed up at a hospital
> emergency room. Before his death, he told the doctor, that he had been
> away on business, had taken a flight from Indonesia , changing planes
> in Singapore , before returning home. He did NOT visit (Olive Garden),
> while there. He did (as did all of the other victims) have what was
> determined to be a puncture wound, on his right buttock. Investigators
> discovered that the flight he was on had originated in India .
>
> The Civilian Aeronautics Board (CAB) ordered an
> immediate inspection of the toilets of all flights from India and
> discovered the Two-Striped Telamonia (Telamonia dimidiata) spider's nests
> on 4 different planes!
>
> It is now believed that these spiders can be anywhere in the country.
>
> So please, before you use a public toilet, lift the seat to check for
> spiders. It can save your life!
>
>
> And please pass this on to everyone you care about.
