   Yeah, lucky here in western MA, too. As a Jersey girl, though, I am heartbroken.

   Speaking of taking care of each other, Rebecca Solnit’s _A Paradise Built in Hell_ is a good read about the community that breaks out in disasters. It’s almost as if capitalist competition is quite fragile and requires big government to keep it going.

   It’s NOT a “glibertarian FEMA is oppressing me” screed, though.

   Nor is it a glibertarian “FEMA is oppressing me” screed.

   As a f/u this AM, crane still dangling, throngs of tourists pointing.
