Let us all participate APAD,  We need to strike while the iron is hot!

Meaning to take early action, the term strike while the iron is hot derives from a blacksmith striking a horse shoe when the temperature of the metal was exactly right. If the blacksmith would wait too long then the metal would cool and would become more difficult to shape.
