Ineptitude? Top to bottom of what?--AS? And what "near disaster"? No one was "nearly struck" by anything.

I can well imagine the false alarm was rattling to those who received it. But certainly no reason to now rattle their economy in a misplaced economic 'moment of silence' over what was by all accounts a false alarm. It makes no sense to me for all promotion of any location to stop just because it's been otherwise 'promoted' in the news. If anything, that's a moment to punctuate the attention in a positive manner.
