We survived Toronto!
Seriously, that's a T-shirt that's selling on Yonge Street here. SARS? Check. Mad cow? Yup. West Nile? Yeah, we've had that one too. SARS? Well, yes, we had it again, but that's all history now.
To help Toronto recover from the damage the SARS scare caused (and it really was just a scare drummed up by the media, no one here ever got sick outside of a hospital) the the Rolling Stones flew in to their favorite city (yup, Toronto has at least one positive distinction) and they gave their biggest concert ever for over 400,000 fans at Downsview Park, a former air force base in north Toronto. It was a blast, unfortunately I missed it though because I had to work.
Some of the papers described it as "like Woodstuck, as planned by the Swiss" because despite being the biggest rock concert in the history of North America there were no fights, looting, riots, no one got hurt (except for a few people with sun stroke) and only a couple of people were arrested on minor charges.
You can read all about it in the Toronto Star or just order the T-shirt
which are pretty nifty - I want to pick up one of these!

The Electric Mayhem would back me on that one.
