Don't feel bad - it was news to me too. I don't pay attention to news so I learned about it on Scubaboard.It may be “all over the news”, but it was NEWS to me, and perhaps others not as clued-in as you. Thus my comment…

Agree completely. Good advice for the super cautious shopper out there.I ordered a couple of pieces of lawn equipment a month or so ago. Last time I checked the ETA on one of them was about 12-16 more weeks. The other one I was told "not to expect until after the first of the year". I also ordered a new primary light and a replacement battery pack for our AED - no ETA on either due to battery shortage.
I guess the moral of the story is if you think you might need something in the near future you need to be proactive about it or roll the dice and take whatever you can find at whatever price if it becomes an immediate need.
Lockdowns have ramifications, like ripples on a lake.
I have now learned to keep my finger on my mute button during a update call. It's laughter activated as soon as I hear the words "Air Freight" followed by "Can we get it faster??" . Last week I had a cargo ship beat an airfreight shipment, because air manifesting & customs are weeks out. I seriously think I can make money being a "hand carry mule" on a plane right now it's that bad.... I'm still astonished by the number of people ....
