[QUOTE="Keith Tedford, post: 210485, member: 1228"] My next door neighbour works for Bell Canada. He says that they are running steady taking equipment out of offices of businesses that are shutting down and won't be coming back. A lot of people have their last cent invested in their business and it doesn't take much to kill them. It's going to be a different world by the time this virus mess is over with. The government seems to be getting the message about opening up. Another step this weekend with malls opening up. This shut down never was meant to stop the virus but just to slow it and flatten the curve so that hospitals weren't flooded with more people than they could handle as happened in Italy and Spain. A friend of mine has heart problems AND lung problems. His doctor didn't sugar coat it. He was told that if he gets this virus, then he is DEAD. We are both retired, so he can work away in his shop freshening up his old cars until this is over. A little common sense will go a long way. We're not going to run out to mingle in the crowds. We go for the odd drive with the Corvette but, again, don't mingle with anyone. We chat with friends by telephone more than usual. [/QUOTE]
