semi- on/off topic (or) "once the bottom falls..." or, bottom bottom, where is the bottom that will fall? . Terry, . I'am sure a child's nursery rhyme would fit like a glove to describe "...all is good today" from mainstream news to allow "Irrational Exuberance is returning." . But on the serious side, once the usa/iraq war starts, followed by terrorist attacks inside usa soil, then it will just be a matter of weeks and short months until an Irrational Panic takes hold on the fears that everyday simple items we all now have in unlimited & cheap supply will be damaged by them weapons of mass destruction. . Simple example being the water supply for drinking & farming. . Myself, i now have a huge supply of bottled spring water in the form of cases, each of gallon jugs 6 to a case from BJ's. . Also cans of beans beans, wet & dry. candles & blocks of wax (or) Its not the year 2000 bug scare, but just knowing the basics of shelter, water & food obtained prior to someone yelling that fire in a crowded room i.e. weapons of mass destruction in the usa will cause everyone to run into the same room(stores) or, just the reverse of out of a burning room, all at the same time trying to go through the same door into a place to buy water & food. Imagine how quickly a store can empty, and then how long it may take to restock the shelves if the supply is damaged. . 99.99% of folks see no hurry or reason based on "all is good today."
