tugged the heartstrings a little to hear the fate of our beloved little Pahoa town brought up by the familiar voices on NPR. a nice bonus was the perfect pronunciation of "Pahoa" by host Audi Cornish.
was an extended interview by telephone with Tiffany Hunt from their shop in Pahoa. thought she did quite well in answering the questions. ...Tiffany did mention the abundance of "armchair Vulcanologists". ha! i think i know what she is talking about....~
