I second that emotion.

Somewhere it was noted that the famous ancient forum in Rome had _many_ exits and could allow for the entire (many thousands of), number of patrons to exit within minutes. Building such a venue would no doubt be prohibitively expensive in the capitalistic setting, notwithstanding the generous funding and tax abatements provided by an overly fond municipality that is usually forthcoming.. it would or at least might save lives however.

Thank you for making a statement in well balanced good taste. And thank you for the beautiful photos of King Rama IX and Queen Elizabeth II over the years.

Yes. Still cringe at the recollection of a beautiful young family, (still safe I hope), pulling out from a parking lot onto a busy highway — dad, mom, two kids — all seated in a row, as pretty a picture as you could imagine, on the family scooter, all with no helmets…

You spent a lot of text on the topic of PIF’s and well done. Here is hoping that your message gets through to the powers that be.
