It's true that governments have been known to create versions of viruses and release them (some people believe this is why HIV appeared, a man made manupilation of SIV).  As far as West Nile, I suppose its possible that it was created by somone-personally I like to think that things like this didn't happen unless its proved otherwise though.  As far as I know, West Nile Virus was discovered in the 1930s-but 70 years is pleanty of time for a natural or unnatural mutation.

Sure a little bit is exagerated by the media, but when 100+ people in your state die or are infected, you think differently.

Thats true, I probably shouldn't be saying much since there has yet to be a known case of it here.
