There were many points C2, not one. I shall have a go creating an executive summary specially for you.

1.....Canuck Dave and his wife suffered a serious car crash recently. TJ was probably unaware so I drew it to his attention.
2.....Then I made a comparison with the crashes lurking in store and how we should be prepared and design things properly as part of that preparation.
3.....As an example, Boracay [which TJ knows of so it was of interest to him] was obviously not going to be smashed by the typhoon and Elroy would be fine on the third floor of their accommodation.
4.....As another example, Fukushima, which TJ is woeful about, was badly designed but another nuclear reactor on the coast was well designed and carried right on humming.
5.....As another example, people in the Taupo caldera should prepare by leaving the city.
6.....As another example, a tsunami will kill swarms on sand spits in NZ.
7.....Canuck Dave and Elroy survived thanks to good design of their equipment and building showing how preparation is vital.
8.....Financial systems can form black hole singularities in Flash Crashes akin to such above catastrophic calamities. Being prepared is wise as with those other events.
9.....Bitcoin is not like the scam Bre-ex [an outright fraud]. Neither is it the best way to design Cybermoney. But it could be the best way to ride out a financial singularity event when others are sucked inside the event horizon.

I made a few other points too, but that's the gist of it. It doesn't take long to type such things, so the time and effort were minimal.
