Were we at the same level of intelligence now as we were then, we may just have weathered this thing like it WAS a mild flu season, because most of the country would have been doing what we needed to do on February 10th instead of April 1st. And many more of us would have been heeding the warnings of the health care professionals who KNOW what they are talking about. And as a consequence, we would have seen thousands of fewer deaths, AND we would be getting back to normal a lot sooner. Hunkering down in February and March is a lot less of a stretch for most people than hunkering down still in May and June.
    I don't get all the fuss. It appears things were way overblown, since the death count is trending significantly below predictions. Them's facts.

    Three generations ago, this country wasn't just a bunch of nancies.

                      No need, aparch. It was lame sarcasm and I'm not given to emoticons.

                      Btw. Dumbazz would be more fitting than son of a *****.

                        Can't tell if this is sarcasm, or you're being serious.

                            The incredibly frustrating part about this sarcasm is how many people actually believe it. Starting with the moron who somehow got elected to be the president.

                            Not once did he want to distance, I'm not sure how he was manipulated to actually admit that it needed to happen, but every time he says that we must do X, the very next day, he starts to undo the X.

                            Even worse, all of the actual orders that have gone out to reduce the spread are from the governors. And this moron is taking credit for all of the effort that he didn't even want to do.

                            Add to that, his lemmings who are still convinced this is a hoax.

                            (which is a very long way of understanding how aparch really went off... lots of facts piling onto the idea that this is going to be a multiple hump solution.)

                            On a more optimistic note, had a global meeting for my company this morning- they are taking the restart very seriously WRT exposing people. Like if there's any possibility that you can work from home, you will for a very long time. While there are aspects of my job that I really do need to be present- the ideas that my small group have come up with reduces that a lot. I really expect that I won't have to be at work, personally, for another 2 months. But I'll have work to do.

                            Even better- the reduction of our sales isn't nearly as bad as expected, and we are much better than last month. Inventing new ways to sell the product. Pretty neat.

                              I enjoy the frequent misunderstandings of burd's sarcasm. It is why I keep one of my favorite lines of his in my sig.
