@a29992c8 's point as well as @TheGuySwann 's response made me think.  I started a longer response, but it was too much.  I was left with this.

What, most certainly is comming, will be very painful.  I can't stop it.  I've found my best shot at getting thru.  Im headed that way.  I can't save many, certainaly not everyone.  I can point at the tidal wave with one hand and at the life boat with the other.  Beyond that, me and mine take first priority.  I will remember sadly those who drown.  I will not feel guilty for what I didn't/couldn't do for them.
