Sometimes you can hear a pin drop in the Reference Department as the students sit at the computers to read their email or surf the internet or, occasionally, do library research. All together, yet each in his/her own world.

All together, yet each in his/her own worldYour phrase fascinates me - sort of applies to most of our daily lives. With such a capacity for being together, only rarely, in gatherings, are we truly together - what a species we are.
oops - sorry meant to have a line break between the copy of your sentence and my sentence ....
I think it should be called Bullshavitz. They got everybody all worried, so far they closed 3 or 4 schools here and the kids they tested were all negative. I could be wrong, but it appears it has died down a bit, those poor pigs in Egypt, all for nothing.
Problem is, it may come back next winter in a more virulent form. They think that's what the 1918 flu did and people under a certain age didn't have resistance to it.
Hand sanitizer bottles are springing up on desks like wild onions.
A colleague with middle- school aged children says they are downplaying it in the schools here.
I have had hand sanitizer on my desk since two years ago, I never shared it, and every one could tell when I used it, the smell! So Now I sit in the front and I see more people and I have been offering it to them and they have all said yes!, one lady pushed down on the squirt thing and it went all over the front of her suit jacket, that was akward
It seems that this wave of the H1N1 virus was milder than was at first thought it would be. I keep listening to hear if you caught the flu in this wave, if it might help give you a certain boost to deal with that anticipated 2nd, more virulent form in the fall/winter - haven't heard one way or the other.
From what I can find from our family records, it is possible that my mother's mother and possibly her father also, both died from that H1N1 flu back in 1918/1919. The death certificates arevery vague as to cause of death.
That's funny, Kristen. I did that to myself the other day. The splotch went right on the front of my new polo shirt. Annoying! But after it dried I couldn't even see where it was, so that stuff must be pure alcohol.
Biddie, I was wondering that too. The officials probably don't know. It could work the other way around...What if your bout left a marker that was a target for the next round (Okay, guys, aim for that one, we've been there before)
