Hi Don,

I see you're keeping current. One thing for sure what seemed bad already seems worse now. It makes you wonder how any of this land mass stays together.

Meanwhile, Southern CA looks like it has the measles. Of course that's nothing new, its a repeat pattern that happens multiple times during the year and it follows usually with quiet for a spell and then the measles again.

But frankly, I'm losing hope in the preparedness department. Seems most folks aren't interested in doing anything about improving their chances of survival and those who run the info highway don't seem to be in a mood to talk about getting ready. Its much easier to talk about the disasters in the making and the clean up process after the next disaster.

Perhaps this is the cosmic plan? Everyone should live in ignorance, enjoy bliss and know whenever it happens, its always going to be somewhere else. Unfortunately, somewhere else now and then is here and now. Oh well, such is life.
