The Sky is Falling! -- The Sky is Falling!

Today, the news media, talk-show hosts, and pundits (both Conservative & Liberal) are shouting at the top of their lungs, "The Sky is Falling! -- The Sky is Falling!" feeding a frantic state of panic in the general population.

We get it down here in Australia as well, Jim. "The Global Financial Crisis" is bandied about as if it's all a foregone conclusion. And people are starting to believe it.

A fellow at work had Planned to go overseas in December. But he tells me, now he'll wait until next year to see how this Financial Crisis goes before flying out. He's working something like 60 hours a week... but concerned this Crisis he Hears about but doesn't experience anything of, will somehow stop his vacation.

Damn. Just as the media stopped calling it Global Warming and now all say Climate Change (now there's a generic term for ya), they have a new hobgoblin to present... Global Financial Crisis - film at 11.

What should we do?

Not What should we do... but Should we do anything?

My answer... No. it will all work itself out in one way or another anyway. As it has always done. Next hobgoblin please...

Michael ...

They tell me that in either Chinese or Japanese the symbol for opportunity and disaster are nearly the same. So, just look for the disasters and take up the opportunity.

You'll find the disasters anywhere you find knee-jerk emotional business people.

As one of my Army Counter Intelligence instructors once told me ... "Keep Your Head. Let the others run and jump and scream. You should just stop and think about it."
