The lamps are going out all over Baghdad...

I moderate the alumni email list for my highschool graduating class (Bronx Science, 1984). This morning, a message came through from a former classmate stationed in Iraq. The top was date-stamped:

February 17, 2007 * 1914 local time

…and I thought to myself, July, or August?

Our list was started up a few years back for the purpose of planning our 20th-year reunion (which went pretty well). After that it sorta died down, and we had no messages at all for a while, and then someone started talking about a 25th-year reunion. But when it's not quiet, it's mostly the party planning, or stupid jokes and occasional catchings-up.
