I have returned from Boise, Idaho, where I attended a meeting of the Pacific Northwest Library Association.

Should anyone think that The Attack isn't coming, I suggest that you consider that last evening at about 8:50 pm MDT, about 200 librarians, most from Oregon, Washington, Alaska, Idaho, Alberta, Montana, and British Columbia, were learning and doing the "Coalminer's Dance" to the music of taiko drums. If THAT isn't an apocalypic sign nothing is.
