Something that will do extraordinary harm .... Yet events that cause extraordinary harm occur often enough now .... They are not unusual ....

To be something WORSE than our everyday average terrible event, we have to see more than just a sentence on a subject line, and an 'nt' in the body of the text ....

This thread is more a casual, pedestrian declaration of some unknown, unfathomable awfulness, without any real justification ... nothing is provided to warrant your dread, nor does it sustain a belief that something beyond the mere everyday horrible is in store for our future ...

It is an empty musing without a foundation ....

What would you have us do ? .. Invent a factual basis for you ?
