As we get closer to Halloween and continue our 99 cent introduction to the World. of the Holocaust Engine, here is a bit more content. a snippet from Captain Perry Nelson’s audio-diary, to whet your appetite for more.

We’ve had power for the last eight weeks because of one man… one man who loved his wife so much… that he found a way to get power to the hospital until they could fix their diesel generator.  It wasn’t for us.  He did it for her.

            [33 second delay, audible crying]

            And he fought that guy.  He went at him… just swinging a wrench, then a ball-peen hammer, finally just his hands, trying to keep that thing away from the turbine.  Doing anything to make sure the hospital wouldn’t lose power again.  To make sure his wife would have just a few more minutes.

            [1 minute 45 second delay]

            I know everybody here thinks it’s hopeless.  Thinks this place is going to be a slaughterhouse any minute now… But they’re wrong… they’re wrong.  I know it looks bad.  We need a miracle.  But you just hang on.  You hear me, people? You just hang on.

            I’m going to get you your miracle.

A little Wordsworth for the weekend.

From “Ode to Duty”

“Serene will be our days and bright,
And happy will our nature be,
When love is an unerring light,
And joy its own security.” -1804
