In the Kim family story, it's pretty likely the 7 month old only lived because she was breastfed - the mother breastfed both kids during the week (a week, people!) they were in the car. May have saved the 4 year old too. Not that you should base the decision to breastfeed on the off chance you may be snowbound in your car for a week.

You know what's fun? When I can be all inter-Mission-y helpful. Yay hurtling things in space!
OTOH, it's left me with a huge headache and a certain dread I'll be on the phone with this guy trying to decipher files that were poorly documented 15 years ago by people who are now dead. So.

This is where I want to live when I win big in the lottery. The top floors of the Hotel Pierre in Manhattan.
edit: And, yes, my tastes in interior design do tend to the baroque and ornate, and I'm not ashamed of it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That place has been on the market for two years -- you'd think they would have come down from the $70million by now.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Huh, I'm having dinner there next Thursday. (In the restaurant, not the penthouse.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That's so annoying - I'd totally pay $69 million for it....

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Does no one here watch Daybreak? What's wrong with you people?

I no longer can put off rewriting all the documentation here because they've now assigned it as an Official Task. Grump.

Me, I'm full-up on shows I actually care about. I'm even full-up on shows I only care a little about or have the slightest bit of lingering curiosity about.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
It's not the $70 million that's the problem, it's the $464,600/yr maintenance.
