Just a reminder that bombs and death and destruction only become “real” (i.e., shift out of the realm of abstraction) when somebody you personally knows experiences the carnage first-hand, and more particularly when they flinch and go “whoa!” and look alarmed. It’s the quick grin and the slight “heh-heh” that tells you Anderson Cooper was truly jolted by the sonic iimpact.
