What's this?

Not me. I'd go back into a full Lane Stadium tomorrow if I could


the percentage of healthy people dying not just in the US, but worldwide is miniscule. Over 500,000 people have tested positive (and you know a helluva a lot more people had it) and less than 500 of the dead didn't have underlying health issues. So 0.1% (or .001) of healthy individuals that tested positive died. In other words, 99.9% of healthy folks will recover. I'm good with those numbers. Let's protect the vulnerable and get back to business soon. JMHO - we can all agree to disagree.

And to put my money where my mouth is, I still have flight reservations to Riviera May in mid-June and if the resort, airlines, and Government allow it ... I'll be sitting on a beach.
