Boris,
We think of you and your family every day.
We hope for your continued safety.
We imagine you are living like Londoners under 'the blitz.'
I hate the thought of what this must be doing to the girls.
I wish the Palestinians had enough strength and sense to control the
rocket launchers.
Until this happens, I fear that much misery and suffering and death
will be visited upon them.
I have no sympathy for those launching the rockets, hiding behind
their neighbors.
Regards, Bob S.

Hello.
Below is the statement of the fact. It is not my intent to convey any
emotional sub-text whatsoever. Times are approximate, except the very first
one.
* 5:50 - my alarm clock rings; I swipe it to silence. I decide to linger in
bed a bit longer.
* 6:00 - Julia wakes up and starts her morning routine
* 6:10 - we hear rocket alarm, I jump out of bed. Julia grabs the kids and
heads to the stairway of our house. According to rear command, we have 90
seconds to get to safety. This gives me time to pull on my yesterday's
t-shirt and trousers. We climb down two stories, it seems that everyone in
our building (4 story, 40 years old) agree that the area between the first
and second floor is the safest. First floor is one immediately above the
ground floor. We're alone as no one is awake at this time of day.
* 6:15 - we hear some booms. It is interceptor rockets handy work. Anat is
counting.
* 6:20 - I suggest we return. Girls start to stand up as they were sitting
on the floor. We hear another rocket alarm. The girls return to sitting on
the floor.
* 6:25 - We hear some more booms. Anat keeps her count. The doors around us
start to open as our neighbors drag themselves out of bed. Few minutes later
we return home to start our day.
Now comes the emotional part. It's been about a week since this has started.
Only one list member, blessed be his name, has written to me off the list.
Frankly, your silence is deafening...
Carry on.
Boris
