It's raining.
But they are forging ahead with the underground shopping mall in the flood zone!
In addition, we are being sent text messages advising us to close doors and windows; switch off and unplug our computers, phones, televisions etc. during thunderstorms; and not have showers. I don’t get the last part.
Rain = water = electricity conductor.
And if you drink 'pure' water only - you will die as it cannot conduct the
electricity need for metabolism....
But all that aside, Liuzhou - and chance of an update on 'Little Sister'???
Please?
When I was a kid a lightning strike hit our house in Illinois and came down
through the pipes in the wall. Blew the showerhead completely out of the
wall. That's why you don't want to shower during a thunderstorm.
Well, in my admittedly limited experience lightning tends to hit the
highest things and then travel downwards. My water pipes comes in at ground
level and rises upwards.
I would love to update you on "Little Sister". I'm (unofficially) told she
is doing well, but it was decided by her carers that there had been enough
publicity which wasn't exactly helpful.
