If you haven't noticed, the way we mark time has changed. There aren't that many memorable natural disasters between the eruptions at Pompeii and Mount St. Helens. But now it's nuclear meltdown earthquakes and drowning polar bears non-stop. I had a gun to my head a few weeks ago. It was a personal natural disaster. I am still waiting for my clock to reset, or for the next catastrophe -- should be any second now.
