Because whether it is or not doesn't mean squat. The systems we have allowed our lives to depend upon are not. I would suggest a look (a very close one) at: http://www.garynorth.com Do not make the fatal mistake (that is intended in the very literal sense re fatal as to you and yours meaning everybody reading this) of taking Mr. North lightly. He has been roundly flamed for being a fanatic. About 3-4 years ago. Still is by many, but the mainstream is catching up _rapidly_. He recently said he would _be_ mainstream by Nov 99. It's now looking to be so much sooner than that. When he is the panic will be here. When that happens, adaquate preparations will be nearly if not completely impossible. After coming up to date (this intended for the few who might not be) take a look at the forums link. Many intelligent people there with a lot of valuable information to share.
