1. I don't see how this would "demise" industries long term. Maybe flight and travel will take a hit? Big whoop, maybe they should have had a contingency plan for stuff like this? Travel is kind of to blame for this epidemic, so its only fair that these companies gets a dose of karma. There is something wrong in this world when people can only get a sense of fulfillment if they travel all over the world, its just a decadent, polluting form of escapism. 2. Im sure this won't stop global warming long term, humanity will be back to being good little wage slave consumers in no time. 3. Your reasoning is build on fallacies. Not only 85 year olds are affected by this outbreak of SARS. Even healthy young adults can get ARDS like conditions that will seriously affect quality of life and age.
