I lived through the 17 year locust cycle in DC as a chid. There were increasing levels of pandemonium as the drone of the critters went on and on and seemed to effect a lot of people. Tempers grew short. Drivers crashed swatting the open window invaders. They seriously hurt if you were riding bike and head on collision occurred. No one seemed immune to the effect.

How many co-ink-i-din-Q's have to be present before it goes beyond happenstance and through to enemy action?

It's a conspiracy. Not a theory.
