Fire and rain
The horrible "deaths":http://www.boston.com/news/packages/nightclub_fire/ in Rhode Island make it hard for me to justify writing of lighter things today. It seems so often these things happen to people who are only trying to have a good time and listen to music they like.
Question: Why the hell are sprinkler systems still optional in some places of public assembly? Yes, it may cost a lot to equip old buildings. Requiring them might close down some old buildings. But we are talking 96 lives here.
...
The rain today isn't helping my mood. Now in addition to lots of snow, we have lots of mud. But at least we're on a hill -- flooding is possible some places.
