"wild speculation"  "grossly irresponsible"  "feed public panic"  Carl, you
have a penchant for adjectives to season your contrarian ways but isn't
it a tad premature soft shoe the ol' told you so?  I thought that a third or
more of the original count were foreign nationals ... don't suppose their
next of kin having been knocking down the charity doors.
