Good point Eric,I've seen the beaches in Florida are packed with young adults.
It seems they they are under the false pretense they are at a much lower risk
and don't think they are at risk. A lot of people will never get symptoms but
can still be a carrier! Yes I do wash my hands much more and dont go anywhere I
dont need to go to. I don't know what a true fix is, but I've heard the
National Guard is calling all reserves to be prepared to be deployed for at
least a month!? It could be just a rumor! Maybe Martial Law is coming! Time
will tell. I do hope this goes away soon, its really effecting my small
business, and I'm not the only one thats being put on hold. Support your local
restaurants and small Mom and Pop stores. The big chains will survive no matter
what.RodSent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone

that young people like your employee might want to consider is that a lot of
young folks will end up in the ICU. Older people die at a higher rate, but it
doesn't mean that young people are immune or will always just get mild
symptoms. Some will still end up being hospitalized, intubated, and on a
ventilator. They will just have a better chance of surviving the ordeal than
their parents or grandparents. Stay home, old folks, young folks, and kid
folks.On Mar 18, 2020, at 4:50 PM, Ralovley (Redacted sender "Ralovley" for

RE: Coronavirus Precautions Haha - I bet! My strategy on bug control has been
to buy the big tarps at Horror Freight (as Marino called it) and make sure you
put that down like 10 minutes before you paint. Over here if you start between
10am to high noon, you won't have to do the old tweezer trick to pull them off.
Of course, not having all this shitty pollen in the air helps as well :-)On

Seriously though, right now people need some time to relax (besides Titos), now
here is a good one from an old timer (my Dad) ... he told me about the USAF
missile command center stationed in theKodiak islands (KLC) (300 miles from
Russia) and how during the 50's and 60's the Radar operators watching screens
all days would just listen to smooth jazz to stay calm. You even hear about now
in the NYC Zoos for the big cats and monkeys to calm down ...So, Herb Alpert,
Ben Tankard, Peter White, Chriss Botti, Kenny G.. great things to play or
stream instead of watching all the Drama on the news right now.On Wed, Mar 18,

Hey folks,
I'd like to leave everyone with one final thought for the day, from a
colleague I receive this morning:
During the Great Plague of London in 1665-1666, the University of
Cambridge closed for a few months. A young undergraduate named Isaac Newton
engaged in social distancing and retired to the family home a hundred
kilometers to the north. There he continued working, and subsequently
discovered the calculus,the theory of gravitation, and the spectral nature of
light among many other things.
So stay focused on your work, build rockets, and use this time to do
some good for the world.
best regards
-James

Vito posted something today on FB that really brings it home:
Our parents or grandparents were asked to go to World War, many of them
never returned.
We're being asked to stay home, avoid social gatherings, and watch
Netflix.
Really brings it home doesn't it?
Anyhow, people need to take this seriously so that we can curb the
growth of this thing and squash the peaks.
So build your favorite rocket and focus on your family...
After that, it's time to fly rockets!

I figured this would be coming, at least for the next launch we’re in
the clear since it’s the cleaning party. Hopefully this is done ✅ with by May.
So we can have Dairy Aire. If not we will just have to stay put, and wait it
out.
