On Bernice, she may be spending more (a lot) of time with her brother and family, and step-nephews/nieces? (not sure if they are same sex twins or not). That is reasonable and if so a story in itself. We are so conditioned with the ease of electricity; Thomas Edison is a titan we should be proud of and thankful for the the historical figure that deserves more credit is Nikola Tesla. If we had a direct electricity system our world would look like those alternative kerosene burning world, where like this tablet I am typing this on, where individual use of electricity would only be for the rich.
