Mrs. Place

I was at home with my children (aged 2 and 4 at the time), trying to keep them away from the TV, even though I couldn't take my eyes from it. It didn't take the FAA long to shut down all commercial airspace, but I could still hear the roar of jets flying right over my house. I remember feeling a kind of fear I'd never felt before, and I remember thinking these exact words: We have been taking everything too much for granted.
