Herd mentality is bad, bad I'm tellin' ya!  It leads to stampede and
the bastards could sweep us all over the cliff, though this may not be
an entirely bad thing, given the condition of the planet and our
contribution to the.....situations.  I am thinking that the herd is
starting to awake here...the "news" is reflecting this today, and the
bleating has started....."gov't must helppp, gov't must helpppp".

**** me, bush is again pu****ng to open the anwr to drilling.  The only
solution to the oil situation is to retool our society and QUIT DRIVING
SO DAMN MUCH!

I fear it going to get ugly.  It is for sure going to
become...different.

I think you have that right and should count your blessing....I've got
300 million members of the herd to worry about!

Rant mode off now.
