How can it be a "tidal wave"?
Certainly she must know that. I have suspected people reading by blog-posts here on my blog are doing that to signify they are reading some or all of my blog-posts.
That dramatic and horrifying video today is certainly nothing to joke about.
I examine my original-work for the improbable.
The progress of this note does not match the cognitive-process in my mind as I assemble and craft this information.
Nothing proved here today. Just what my observations cause me to think. Includes references to my previous work, not fully explained here today.

The American Legion
"Retreat, hell! We just got here."
DEC 11, 2014
America entered World War I to reinforce the battered French and British troops waging a desperate fight against Germany. On June 2, 1918, a division of Marines was sent to support the French army at Belleau Wood. As the Marines arrived, they found French troops retreating through their lines. A French colonel, attempting to acquaint the Americans with the realities of the situation and not trusting his spoken English, scribbled a note to the officer in charge of the Americans ordering them to retreat. The Marine officer looked at the Frenchman coldly and said, Retreat, Hell! We just got here. That officer was Capt. Lloyd W. Williams, commanding the 51st Company, 2nd Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment.
