Yes, people are buying up everything, preparing, preparing, preparing.  I'm
sure that Survival Magazines will be bought up quickly.  The Silent Partner
FDN will have some magazine extracts from several survivalist magazines.  It
can be accessed from:

poindexter FORTRAN noted something very important: the world is shutting
down.  How will things change in the days to come, will it get worse, will it
become the next Plague.  I don't know, but what I do know is that my employer
has cancelled all programs that deal with people who visit public facilities.
So I'm a bit worried, but this sheltering in place idea seems to work thus
far.  Its always the weakest in society that get stepped on.  Poor kids who
will possibly miss their breakfasts for the next several weeks is an alarming
possibility.  Where I'm at (Toronto area) all restaurants have been closed
except for the drive-thru places or take-out only operations.

The military has a few terms detailing just how bad a situation is:
1> SNAFU, 2> TARFUN, 3> FUBAR

1> Same as Normal All Fouled Up
2> Things Are Really Fouled Up Now
3> Fouled Up Beyond All Recognition

We are currently on level two: TARFUN
Lets hope a pray that it doesn't get to FUBAR.

Peace!
Best regards,
