In 1959, the patients who were discharged averaged 283 days in sanatorium. "No wonder there are a few empty beds," she said, "The turnover of patients has been accelerated.

This part of the meeting is a lot of ridiculous maninoff. We're not going to eat like pigs, she claims, so the din-room table must go in. And she doesn't want any dirty-booted rescue workers tromping around on her good rug, so that has to go inside. Along with all the good china, silver and glassware. We're not going to try to get the car inside, because it's insured. But I'll be hanged if I leave the lawnmower out. It's a second-hand power mower I bought this fall for $20, and I never was able to get the motor started, so I'm not going to just let that go up in smoke, without getting some use out of it.

It's taken a lot of planning, but I think I've found the solution. It will be a lot cheaper to hire a fleet of bulldozers to cover our house with earth, than it will be to build a shelter big enough to hold everything my family insists is essential to survival.
