WoW virus outbreak model for real outbreak?

Blizzard might have accidentally stumbled upon the disaster modeling market. Apparently the virus unleashed on virtual players in the World of Warcraft MMORPG might have some practical applications. 

Hopefully Blizzard will get moving on an earthquake disaster model soon because I think we're due for a big one in California any day now.

Besides being pretty cool in itself (the outbreak), I think it's just as equally cool that scientists can "get something" from it, for sure!
