Wow. That is awesome, Liese.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Oh Liese, that sounds wonderful. Perspective, huh?
Yay, Hayden's brother. What a relief for you and your family--and for him, of course.
Ginger, my additional appreciation for your astute and sense-making interpretation and presentation of the flurry of conflicting reports. The confidence of knowing what's what, rather than fearful attention to rumor is itself calming.
There was a fireman at Chernobyl who was caught in the initial explosion who said he would stay in there and try to shut off what he could because he knew he was dying anyway and was going to spend his last hours/minutes trying to save as many as he could.
There's a reason why The Green Hills of Earth, The Long Watch, and well, Spock become folk tales. Honest bravery and heroism are rare enough to deserve remembering--even if fictionalized. I guess nuclear containment people sign up for possible heroism at the outset.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Thank you, and backflung, bonny and Zenkitty!

Good news Hayden.
Also, since I don't think I got to say this at the time, YAY! Nilly-baby!

Thanks to all of your posts about bacon fat and bacon bourbon, I am now seriously considering sending Pete out to go get a package of bacon.
I am also craving a bacon Bloody Mary from Genie's in PDX. And while I'll BE in PDX next weekend, I promised Pete we wouldn't go there, because their food doesn't play well with his system. Dammit.

It seems to be up and down over the last hour, Liese.
