Your rule number one for surviving a panic stampede in a croweded night club is the best:

"Don't be there."

But God bless the kids who were there just the same.

Yes Travis, may he bless and keep them all.

Exactly. Rule number one was a big part of my meaning in post number 48.

Having had 4 kids now get into and beyond their late teens now ... I look at those sad young souls there at the front door and can't help but think of my own and thank God that none of them are so inclined to frequent those places, at least not at this point.

But my heart and prayers go out for each and every one. So young, so unaware of what was bareling down on them. It just hurts to think about ... but the lesson must be passed on.

Exactly right.
