And it is a bit of the psychic numbing effect. People can emotionally relate to a small incident affecting 20 people, but can more easily move past a large incident that affects thousands or millions. I get the same sense with this.

Just speaking for myself, all I can do is watch the train wreck in slow motion and wait to see what happens.
