The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Earthquakes are weird.

I was in northern Pakistan when the 1974 earthquake hit: [link]

Magnitude 6.2, and we were about 100km south of the epicenter, but because we were bouncing along on in a Jeep on a dirt road, we never noticed a thing. (If the driver noticed, he didn't mention it.) We didn't find out anything had happened until we listened to the BBC that night.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

Thanks, Jen. Yeah, it would be bad to ruin this by worrying about next year or something. Mom wants me to have it.(I don't share these emotions with her anymore, because she is sort of the "Walk it off," type, ironically.) And, even on an economic basis, I know that sitting on your cash doesn't make the sense that it *feels like* it makes anyway.
