God knows what you did, Mr. Hero. That’s all you need. If I were you, I would stay anonymous. The mainstream media is vicious and will find some way to tear you down. And much thanks for what you did!

“the hero placed Oshita’s body in the well between the rails “
That was risky.

There's a pic of her at the source link showing her at a sit-in, holding a 'Save UH / Stop UARC' sign. The Save UH / Stop UARC coalition led the campaign to resist the establishment of a Navy-sponsored University Affiliated Resarch Center (UARC) at the University of Hawaii (UH). --DMZHawaii.org

That was risky. Everything is risky. Do you have a point?

Coincidentally, I was just reading an old issue of "Outdoor" magazine which had a survival quiz in it. One of the questions was "What should you do if you are on the tracks of the NY subway system and don't have time to climb onto the platform before the train reaches you?" The answer was lie down between the rails, because many of them (but not all) are designed to leave space for a person.

LOL. Actually, no, I really didn’t have a point.
Glad the well between the rails was deep enough.

The answer was lie down between the rails, because many of them (but not all) are designed to leave space for a person. One of the strangest deaths I've ever read about occurred in the NYC Subway. A homeless man was urinating on the tracks and somehow the stream of urine came into contact with the third rail electrocuting the poor devil. I read this in a book by a former NYC medical examiner whos name I'm sorry to say I no longer recall.

I have no problem whatsoever accepting this to have been a guardian angel! I have had a couple of experiences in my life that could not be explained in any other way, period.
The Bible tells us that children have angels who are in the presence of God daily.

By tomorrow the black man will be Obama and no one in the WH will do anything to deter the story.

I sort of doubt that story because the stream of urine is not a laminar flow and the voltage is not high enough to arc between droplets. More likely he stumbled and fell while he was urinating.
