60.1) I like the references to lichen and moss. They're such simple organisms that sort of represent life's continuity despite less-than-ideal conditions. That kind of describes Nuala, and could also represent Northern Ireland. Have I gone off the deep end here or what?! I like the simplicity of the chapter. It seems to be in response to the previous chapter: Time may indeed stand still for Nuala, but it continues to move forward without pity or mercy for Pamela and Casey, and Northern Ireland. (NT) --
