Mayhaps ye'd prefer this one... Someone a year behind you in high
school, not that close a friend (you didn't go out of your way to talk
to each other), and whom you last saw in high school in Northern
California ELEVEN YEARS ago.

He's now in Barstow (in the middle of the desert in California); you're
working in LA. What odds do you give of being on the same flight from
Atlanta to Melbourne, Florida (not the End of the World, but you can see
it from there)?

[He had been ordered to catch a MAC flight to some place across the
Atlantic. The Middle of Nowhere was the closest the commercial flights
could get him to the MAC base. Yours truly was working for a no-name
company headquartered there. And anyone from the West wanting to get
there had to change planes in Atlanta.]

You can't settle the issue until you've settled how to settle the issue.
