Seems as if your regulatory agencies function in like manner as ours.

Curse whomever cursed us with, "May you live in interesting times"

The process is like watching a train wreck slowly unfold....problem
is, our vantage point is from within the out of control train upon
which we are stuck!

Thanks for the link, fellow choir member Phorbin.  ;-)

Government has inflicted many diseases on our first-line guardian
agencies not the least of which is underfunding.


That would be the gods and I think I'll leave them alone.

My feeling exactly.

Sometimes I thnk that the best to be hoped for in the long run is being
far back enough on the train to help bury the dead, transport the
injured and aid the survivors. ...and far enough ahead in thinking to
have a full emergency response kit in the coach.


You're welcome.

I whistle more than I sing these days but I'm in the right key, everyone
knows the tune and most people seem inclined to sing as many verses as
they know.
