It was a cold bright day in April and the clocks were striking thirteen.

Not so bad when seen in perspective.

If you guessed that this was the opening line of  George Orwell’s 1984, you were right.

We tend to forget that we can have cold weather in April, but yes we can.  I’m not a gardener, but an expert one told me that you can have a frost as late as May 25.

Be thankful.  We could be living in Kathmandu.

UPDATE:  By 2 PM, Pittsburgh time, the death toll from the earthquake and an earthquake-like aftershock had risen to 1,500 and is expected to continue to grow.

From early reports, over 700 people were killed in four nations.
