THE TELEGRAPH: The extraordinary courage of the... →
mohandasgandhi: I really don’t know why they’re not getting more attention.  Despite them really not having a choice in the matter (What are they going to do?  Let the plant completely melt?), these scientists have acted very courageously and we all are indebted to them.  These individuals know they’re going to die and yet they’ve done such an incredible job.  It’s inspiring.

mex-american: In 1993, when I was 14, I became a regular on “Sesame Street.” The show usually liked to have a teenager on, so that was me. My character had my same name, Carlo, and eventually I got a job at Mr. Hooper’s store. I had to make a birdseed milkshake for Big Bird, that was my tryout. I ended up appearing on “Sesame Street” for five years. But the whole time, I had a secret: I was...
