The current drama is bad situation/cluster..., but really... it can't be the end of the world as we know it. Especially for those of us here who 'enjoyed' living in India in the 80s, when you stood in line with no certainty of the outcome for:
- sugar/wheat at the local ration store
- paying fees for simple things at some obscure location/branch of a nationalised bank
- getting a form
- getting a passport
- getting the ECNR stamp in your passport for the next trip abroad
- getting a result at an educational institution
- getting a visa
- getting a postage stamp

etc etc. Or did I have mean parents who made me do all these things myself?
