I am over fifty, and have a compromised immune system, due to chronic disease.

I fit the profile for someone who should get the H1N1 vaccine this fall but there is a problem. I have a severe allergy to egg-based vaccines (Before anyone asks, no I don't have a food allergy to chicken eggs. I don't know about duck eggs and don't intend to test that).

Will I have any options? Will there be a non-egg-based vaccine available?

The last time I had a vaccine of this sort was the Rubella vaccine when it first came out, and I went into anaphylaxis. I don't really like the idea of getting the shot and then having to get pumped up with antihistamines, but I suppose I will if this flu is as dangerous as they fear.

Any thoughts (Please no anti-vaccine people)?

No email for several weeks now, even though I've had some Best Answers I checked and the address is still there, and validated.

I've watched enough football to know that even the top MLS teams would have a very hard time keeping up in the EPL. But you don't see enough lower league football in the States to get an idea where MLS teams would slot.

Good answers will get thumbs ups from me, but irrelevant and non-answers will be reported (No patience for non-serious answers).

Every science fiction fan knows Clarke's Third Law: "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."

The other two are not so well known. Ten points for the first to supply the other two correctly, with reference.
