“You might say that uncertainty, like the thermal pulses or the blast waves, is one of the features of a holocaust. Our procedure, then, should be not to insist on a precision that is beyond our grasp but to inquire into the rough probabilities of various results insofar as we can judge them, and then to ask ourselves what our political responsibilities are in the light of these probabilities. This embrace of investigative modesty- this acceptance of our limited ability to predict the consequences of a holocaust- would itself be a token of our reluctance to extinguish ourselves.”

–Jonathan Schell, from The Fate of the Earth (1982).

Pulse massacre anniversary: Today marks the first anniversary of the mass shooting at Orlando’s Pulse nightclub, a gay club attacked by Omar Mateen, a Port St. Lucie security guard vaguely inspired by ISIS, in what turned out to be the deadliest mass hooting against LGTB people in the county’s history. His ties to ISIS were vague as the CIA’s investigation of Mateen revealed no contacts between him and ISIS nor travel. The shooting began after 2 a.m. SunRail is adding extra service tonight to accommodate those attending the anniversary events, including the Pulse remembrance ceremony at Lake Eola Park. This is an addition to the regularly scheduled trains, which may also offer options to those traveling to and from the downtown Orlando area. SunRail will run additional service out of Church Street station at 9:47 p.m. heading southbound, and at 10:15 p.m. heading northbound from Sand Lake Road station.
