Two things to remember as this war or whatever you want to call it unfolds... First, "For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction." and secondly, "An object in motion tends to remain in motion unless acted on by an external force."

Think I'll go browse some antique stores today. Maybe stop at the surplus store on the way back and see if anybody has Isreali gas masks (the best by far). No, I'm not paranoid. But just because you aren't planning on getting in a wreck, you still put a seat belt on - same thing. If it ever comes to a situation where a gas mask is needed there will be victims and survivors. I'd of course rather be counted in the latter. Besides, Halloween is coming...
