Lampedusa/refugee crisis updated June.6, 2022

Most recent Changes

Since March 14, 2020, I've had a lot of email. I have no funny stories about the current crisis, so this photo will have to do. It was taken by Danilo Volpe, one of the persons who runs La Briocheria coffee bar the day before they had to shut down. I hope to see them open again in the near future. I thank all of you for your messages of concern and good will. I can't answer them all. I'm understaffed ( just me), but thank you.

I couldn't do this without the IT magic of a server and ISP. Talk about understaffed: Vincenzo and Marco (that's all) of Shift-Left, inc. They keep this thing going, and I don't know how they do it. I thank them, as well.
Stop worrying! Hang in there. I'll do the same.
p.s. Go wash your hands.
