...days, rescue teams like this one have been doggedly shuttling survivors from the putrid streets of the city to this desolate airstrip. Hundreds and hundreds of refugees plucked from parking garages, apartment buildings, highway overpasses, the roofs of their homes, whatever high ground they could find, are now stuck standing on the dark runway, waiting for someone to take them somewhere, anywhere but here...

...Because I use a Motorola Bluetooth cell phone, I stuck to the Motorola headset. This isn't because of the invisible software that joins them together-that's based on a Bluetooth standard that guarantees that Motorola headsets and non-Motorola headsets will behave similarly when connected to a Motorola phone.

...going to stop the complaints, I was going to distract them long enough to make a difference. In the process, I got to bask in a few triumphs. An excited huddle of campers playing word games like Scattergories or Wheel of Fortune almost forgot they were stuck in MMM. Anti-writing warriors scribing columns about sports and rappers would make my day. Little campers learning how to speak Swahili or write their name in hieroglyphics was awesome.
