I felt it would be interesting to link you all to a thread that was started, in this very forum, 9 years ago today Thread. It makes for a hugely interesting read, and kinda shows the ****-scariedness that people went though back then. @mods: Don't move this to the sub forum for a while

that thread should be preserved in a digital archive, historians will no doubt use them posts for first hand knowledge of how the contemporaries reacted on that fateful day
