I have been contacting family and friends this morning just to make sure that everyone has a plan. I feel like a fearmonger for doing it, but the fact is that everything we've seen people speculating about as to what's going to happen is actually happening. Almost in the order that the speculation has described.

The gut reaction is to want to say "oh, that'll never get that far", etc., but it IS getting there and we have GOT to take this seriously.
