[Women] greetings

[Annie Warmke]

I'm wondering what people see as the "silver lining" of the virus.  I'm 
not being sarcastic.   Some of the things I'm thinking are possible:  
people eating at home (yes, I know restaurant delivery has gone crazy) 
with their families, digging out games to play together (online or the 
old-fashioned way), people focusing on growing food this summer, and 
people using the actual telephone to talk to each other.  It seems we 
might also begin to exhibit some resiliency, which most folks don't seem 
to know much about these days.  Anybody else?  Annie
