The Solar Eclipse
All gone. It will be back, though, and people will make a fuss about it again. Money will be spent to travel to the expected pathway, and people will go to extraordinary lengths to experience it. Despite being told not to look at it, people will look at it. Eyes will be harmed, and some…
