prophets of DOOM!!!

Ever see this on H2? Buncha dudes give scary apocolypse scenerios that they really believe in.

The regular ones: economic collapse,oil runs out, water runs out, terrorists with a nuke

By far the best one was from an Oz-ONIAN who predicts
A zombie robot revolution. He didn't exactly word it that way but that was the drift.

I gotta stop watching these shows.

Excellent. Really.

I also suggest that you try to keep up with your painting.

There was a programme on the TV when I lived in Leicester, positing a failure of the National Grid (electricity, in case it doesn't translate).

Despite many warnings, people complained that they turned on halfway through and believed it was actually happening. Access to TV should be IQ tested...
Anyway, they suggested a scenario and followed a number of characters and how they coped. Poorly, mostly.

It got me thinking what I would do. I decided I would walk to the motorway and try to hitch to my parents' house. I didn't have my boys at that point, and saw no reason to stay put (this was not a power cut, it was suggested as something that would take weeks to sort out).

I'm here now, so I'm okay. Or at least better placed.
Y'all know I'm with Wolf for major disasters anyway.
So don't fret about them until I'm actually in PA. Can't happen til then.
