[MD] Mistrust

[MarshaV]

SA,

Mostly I still listen to C-SPAN's Washington Journal from 
7:00-10:00.  People who call in are really, really, really 
angry.  You are not alone.  My Representative was overheard stating 
that calls coming into his office ran 90 to 1 against the 
bailout.  He voted to pass it.  People are very angry.  I'm not so 
sure how scared they are.  Is there a tipping-point nearby, or a lot 
of baaa'ing.  I don't know.  I'm just telling you you are not alone 
in your distrust.

I think one could easily post now in reaction to the fear that is 
being generated in the media.  And maybe that's what they want.  Like 
having you imagine a mushroom cloud. It's probably not a good time to 
overdo it.  (I may at times get carried away.)   It's too easy to 
scare oneself.  And I would imagine now is the time to stay calm.  Or 
better yet find some humor in the situation.

For humor try:  http://www.thedailyshow.com/full-episodes/

I'm not advising you to post, or not post.
