This is a special version of the Scripting News home page for urgent messages. The first time I'm using this feature is on March 5, 2020 and the message is this: A deadly virus is taking over the world and the United States doesn't have a government. There's so much noise interfering with this big picture. It's like a world wide Hurricane Katrina, and having no ability to, as a world, respond to it. Unprecedented combination of problems, but even this is too much to say on the home page. Focus on the simple pair of facts. Then shut up and think.
