The Human Race

The year was 2001. The location was Christa McAuliffe Elementary School in Tinley Park, Illinois. I was in 2nd grade. We were having a tornado drill and someone said "Hey guys! What if there REALLY is a tornado?" I kissed my friend on the cheek. One of the classroom safety observers started crying uncontrollably. Once she saw me looking at her, she closed her eyes and turned her head away to try to hide it. Then the teachers prompted me to write stories and draw pictures. Eventually, my teacher had me transcribe something and then she got on her knees and made the following statement to me: "Danny, these are the nuclear launch codes. The president wanted you to have them in case you ever decide to end humanity one day." Then she got up and walked away. I saved my drawings in case the day came when their relevancy became undeniable. 22 years later, I rediscovered them. This website is my deep space beacon in case anyone who remembers is still out there.​​
