0:00.0	Hello everybody. This is Jennifer Matarise. And before I get started with the episode, I'd just
0:05.1	like to take care of the usual housekeeping. If you've been wanting to hear a particular disaster
0:09.0	on the podcast, you can do so for a $25 or more donation to the podcast's PayPal account
0:14.0	at Disaster Area at Mail.com. Just add the name of the disaster you'd like to hear about
0:20.1	to the notes of your donation and I'll add it to the list. Just please the name of the disaster you'd like to hear about to the notes of your donation,
0:21.9	and I'll add it to the list. Just please bear with me. I'm legitimately terrible about getting
0:27.1	back to people and things, but I am adding every request to my to-do list. So it's coming. No worries.
0:33.8	Normally when I comes to requests, I do them when and if I can, but this will mean I will
0:37.5	definitely cover the topic of your request as soon as I can finish all the research for it
0:42.9	and get a script written up. That may take a little longer if you requests a bigger disaster,
0:49.3	so please bear with me. The subject from this particular episode, as I've mentioned four times already,
0:55.5	was requested by Kelly, and I'd like to thank her once again for the request and the donation
1:00.0	and the patience. If you'd like to help support the podcast in another way, you can do so
1:05.4	with a one-time donation through PayPal at Disaster Area atmail.com, or on a per-episode basis through Patreon at
1:13.4	www.com slash disaster area podcast. A per-episode donation of even as little as a dollar
1:21.9	an episode can help me do things like keep the lights on and buy treats the puppy, and buy Christmas presents for my family.
1:32.6	So if you do become a patron, I would very much appreciate it.
1:36.3	You can also follow the podcast on Facebook at Disaster Area Podcasts and on Twitter and Instagram
