re: #207 Jay C
I recall once in NY, shopping the day before a blizzard was forecast to hit, going to the grocery store (crowded as hell, everybody trying to stock up ASAP), and seeing a woman pushing a cart loaded with a bunch of stuff, including about 20 boxes of Jell-O. Now I can understand loading up on dairy products, meat, cereal, booze, etc.: but Jell-O?? She must have been expecting a REALLY dire storm….
obviously she is a survivor of the 50s/60s Dinner Party Society…
