I guess you can see why I'm nervous. To me, a calamity is not being able to
cover the utility bill when it's due. I try and try, but I can't imagine what
it would be like to come home and find my wife and children dead from mustard
gas or an atomic bomb. I don't know WHAT I'd do. Freak out? Go POSTAL? I 
on't
know. 
Nobody should have to worry about that.
... ever notice how ours is the only planet named after dirt?...
