When was the last time a stranger spoke to you on a train?

"Change, personal and political does not come about in a day, nor a year. But it is the day to day decisions, the way in which we testify with our lives to those things in which we say we believe, that empower us. Your power is relative, but it is real. And if you do not learn to use it, it will be used, againist you and me and our children. Change did not begin with you and it will not end with you but what you do with your life is a vital part of that chain. The testimony of each of our daily lives is a vital missing remnant in the fabric of the future." - Audre Lorde

Oh Becky with a red hat...
I remember you in your red beret. And if it is that hat you mean, then I can only say: if I sat next to you on a metro, I would ask "when can I see you again?" even without speaking to you, without a conversation, a beer or an evening. (-;

...meaning: greetings from a work session about to end, at 1:50 am in a smoky room in Jabal Amman, lit sparingly by a made-in-china heater, the light of 3 laptop screens and a 5-bulb chandelier hanging from the ceiling, of which only 2 are working, shining dimly through yellow glass balls.
Good night and good morning.
