How do you guys stay warm when fighting fires in the bitter cold and with all that water falling on you? It looks so miserable. I want to stop and pass out hot coffee when I see you doing this, but the area is cordoned off.

Hi, Kerstin! Welcome to the internet! Like the world you know so well, it includes all kinds and takes all kinds.

My question: Now that you have started your digital journey, what do you think you will get out of it? Now that this door to the largest trove of information, misinformation, and everything in between has been opened for you, what, if anything, is on your to-do list? What are you excited to explore?

Second question if you have time: You have access to more information and a greater ability to source and move people and materials at this very moment than any Pharaoh of Egypt, Emperor of Rome, or Khan of Mongolia. Just a few clicks in a few hours can send tons of material and thousands of people into motion all over the world. What does this mean for you? Is it a good thing?
