How many 2+2er's are ready to hang it up?

With all thats going on and the apparent chaos and uncertainty within the online poker industry, how many of you guys are ready to call it quits? I have been an avid poker player for the past 2 years or so and have basically learned everything about the game from 2+2, however I have a very active family, career, and other interests and I am honestly trying to figure out if the risk is worth it to me.

Now I know that I'm not nearly as hardcore as many of you and don't depend on poker as a living like many here do, but what are your plans... Obviously if things work out great, but if not what is everyones plan B.

I'm really pissed with everything thats going on because one of my faverite past times is being taken from me, on the other hand, and being honest with myself, I see this as being a tremendous blow that may actually destroy the industry.

These are just my random thoughts...

Move to SoCal or Vegas and don't sweat it.

What's the point in quitting if you enjoy it?

If they stop you from doing it thats one thing, but to quit doesnt make sense to me.

When my shirt is on the floor, and it doesn't smell that bad, I'm ready to hang it up.

I'll mail money orders to the surviving poker sites if need be and I'll write "FU Bush and Congress" on the bottom left corner. I'm not going to let these SOBs tell me what I can do with my own money in my own home.
