What stupour would that be Gianna


I think that it's variously called "the rapture" or the "end of days".
Sadly, there are some Americans so religiously deluded that they
believe that AGW, Islamist terrorism, a nuclear Middle East war will
bring about Armageddon so they take a "so-what" attitude.

So I suppose these chaps were purely carrying out market research for
Mothercare
