What will you do if/when Ebola gets here?

Finally.
I found a real connection between Ebola and Hawaii.
If you can, think back to the Ebola scare and the movie Outbreak in the mid 90's. Current (and former) Hawaii resident Pierre Omidyar worked for a small web site that drew much of it's traffic back then from Ebola content, to which he added an online auction site:

Originally, the domain eBay.com had nothing to do with auctions — it was a workshop where Omidyar would tinker. Its earliest incarnation hosted a web page about Ebola, inspired by the national scare that coincided with the movie Outbreak. (Later, eBay would offer a variety of origin stories for its odd name, none having to do with Ebola in the Bay Area.)

He soon recruited a company president, Skoll, whose first management decision was to remove the alarming Ebola content, over Omidyar’s objection that it was still drawing lots of traffic.
