agenda is more important than honesty about medical issues

When or if Ebola or some other horrific disease makes an appearance in the US, "the agenda" will be our worst enemy. Media will be told to reassure the public. Planes will continue flying, schools will stay opened, people will be expected to show up at work in buildings with closed air systems. People will gather at conventions and concerts.

It will be "for our own good" and for economic considerations. There will be concerns that doing anything dramatic would cause panic, so governments and the media will encourage no change in routines.

The thing to do is to stay alert and decide for oneself if there's a real threat. If there is, self quarantine for a few months might make sense.

I'm preparing not just with foods and emergency supplies, but plenty of books, puzzles, CDs, DVDs...... Will it happen? Probably not. But if it does, we'll mostly be on our own to tell when there's a situation where quarantine is wise.

I am very glad winter is coming. This rascal seems to prefer it hot and wet. I have given up shaking hands and no longer use my desk phone at work. I forwarded it to my cell phone. I also have modified my habits to prevent my using public bathrooms. I try to avoid touching things people have touched.

I feel like Howard Hughes without the money.
