I currently have 1/3 morbidity, which I've found tends to be the sweet spot for most of the groups I've been in lately that has DnD available on every pull. Sometimes, though, if the DPS is really good, it's not enough and I just go with HB/BB/OB/BB, but most of the time I can DnD/HB/BB.
On Lichborne, if you're taking it as a filler talent, I personally have found it to be of some use in certain heroics, specifically ToC. When you get Paletress, if you cycle AMS, Lichborne and then AMS again you can avoid getting feared the first three times the nightmare casts it (which is usually all of them). It helps a lot to not have that thing hitting you in the back. If you know the fights, there are times when being able to ensure that you don't get feared is a good thing. And personally, for me, it was between that and Deathchill to progress down the tree, and I just find that one free crit every two minutes isn't that big a deal.

Well those are all some very help full tips.
So when i'm actually tanking, if it's AoE what do i do with Pestilence, or do i just not worry about blood plague, since all my targets will be infected with frost fever.
Also does BB cause more dmg to targets that are infected with both diseases, then targets that just have Frost Fever.
And this question is just really off topic. I recently got
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=49783
and one of the members in my group mentioned that DW frost tanks want slower weapons. But that seems to be the case with almost all classes, except off hand poison for rogues.
So other than trying too apply posion, when would it be better for
any
class to have a faster swing time.
