I am in Houston, hysteria has taken hold. The stores are sold out of bread and water, a lot of people on the road are driving with a high anxiety it seems(I saw four near miss car wrecks and two actual wrecks on the way in). I have to wonder if part of this hysteria is the internet hype, stories with titles like "Grave danger" and "Life threatening" and "worst in 50 yrs". Although as a city we did learn our lesson from Ike and Rita, no power for weeks, looting, fighting for gas and food, no one is looking forward to that again.
Don't you think it's a good idea to warn people of what's coming? Is that Internet or media hype? Should they just not say anything but "Que sera, sera?"
