0:00.0	Hello, everybody. This is Jennifer Matarise, and before I get started with the episode today,
0:05.0	I'd just like to take care of the usual housekeeping. If you've been wanting to hear a particular
0:09.3	disaster on the podcast, you can do so for a $25 or more donation to the podcast PayPal at
0:15.0	Disasterarea at Mail.com or the podcast Fenmo at Disaster Area Podcast.
0:24.6	Just add the name of the disaster you'd like me to cover to the notes on your donation,
0:26.5	and I will add it to the list.

1:11.0	I do them when and if I can, but this will mean I will definitely cover the topic your request
1:14.6	as soon as I can finish all of the research for it and write it up. Keep in mind that the bigger
1:19.4	the disaster, the more sources I may need to whittle down. The less well-known the disaster is,
1:24.2	the more I may need to search for sources. And the more recent or ongoing a disaster is, the more I may need to search for sources. And the more recent or ongoing a
1:28.6	disaster is, the more I may want to wait until it's over so that the complete story can be told
1:32.7	and all loose ends can be tied up. The subject from this particular episode was, well,
