>(1)...I do however (being a Seattle area resident), have some personal concern about what all you describe above. I also would like to know of the company, so as to notify the Seattle/King County Health Department
(2) I note that you "got my brother to see a doctor. Now he -- the doctor -- can tell authorities what he thinks is appropriate." Normally I would say this is enough. But due to the seriousness of the situation... I am looking forward to you reply - thankyou.

I have given this
a great deal of thought. Here's what
I've done, and my thoughts.

This morning, I filed
a report with King County/
Seattle public

health department. I
explained the situation,
and told them the name

of the company
where my sister-in-law works.
We need, however,

to all go slow here.
How long have you been around?
Do you remember

the daily fear threads
saying that if America
gave Clinton two terms

the National Guard
would start confiscating guns
the very next day?

Do you remember
the daily fear threads saying
that even if Bush

won, Clinton would not
leave office? Remember the
Y2K panic?

I think SARS is bad.
I think it's worse than the feds
are telling us. But

I remind myself
every day that there's always
something scaring us.

And there's always some
basis for the fear that's real.
But fearful people

have sometimes become
kooks. We must not become kooks.
Let's just be careful.

Agreed. And I have tried to point myself in that direction numerous times to comfort myself.

Keeping that in mind, I think this is the real McCoy. Y2K x 10.
