The last few paragraphs are especially interesting.

Thanks, O!

I think the last few paragraphs are especially telling. "...The interconnectedness of the networks..."

If the remediation efforts were poorly done, then we'll all know about it, and suffer through it. For those who say that another company will "pick up the slack", this may not be the case, if that interconnectedness statement is true.

Teamwork is what's going to get us through this mess. We're going to make it, nobody said it would be easy though.

Deb:

I believe that as a society, we can work things out, albeit things will be difficult and sacrifices will have to be made by all. My greatest concern, however, is whether our society has the will to pull together. Hope for the best but prepare! Good luck to you!
