    so was i, i remember hiding under my steel tube and pressed board desk to escape certain evaporation by soviet nuclear missiles

    one reason the current crisis seems so new and terrifying is that humans have already experienced this and merely fail to remember

    humans, in general, do not learn from our collective mistakes
    we will, collectively, repeat the same errors wit ...[text shortened]... embered the things that have already happened
    and how those things were dealt with

    brut, anyone?
    We were advised to paint ourselves white and hide under the stairs when the bombs fell. You can't say lessons weren't learned, I always have a can of white gloss handy although the cupboard has got a bit cluttered.

    I live on a hill. One day I will live on Liverpool Island if people don't learn that we really don't need all the long haul flights! I haven't bought a boat yet because I am an optimist. It may appear that I can't afford one, but in fact it is because I am an optimist!

    I just hope the Covid-19 doesn't take a summer break then start all over again in the fall. Some are predicting that could happen. 🙁

    Stop being so fearful everyone! Be strong, be brave!

    No go make sure you have enough toilet paper to last you the rest of the year and hide in your house and don't answer the door for anyone.

    You do know the difference between fearful and being careful?
