They are scared of not acting. Seems premature to me as well, but maybe they know something we don't. :shrug:
Then again at this rate they'll be killing flies with sledgehammers soon.

Jill, Merc, Ali... there are plenty of alarmists who want to just keep predicting everything will go bad, we have one here. Then when one of his ramblings comes close to being true he calls himself a genius. Never mind the dozens or hundreds (who knows how many) that were total bullshit.
I agree - this may be a very serious threat, but it is far too early to tell.
Then again, better safe than sorry...
