it was someone from the future trying to stop the publishing of the hipster puppies book, which ends up leading to the end of civilization as we know it. whiney from the future killed the arsonist but died in the fire.

now who knows what will happen...
Whiney, have you done anything about smoke damage? My memories of the fire in my apartment a little distant (it was 1982), but I remember that smoke damage was pretty deep and instantaneous and the smell of soot won't go away until you address it properly -- won't wash out of clothes without certain chemicals, all your recovered stuff (books, records, jewel cases, etc etc) has to be treated; when it's just sitting in boxes it's just soaking in the smell. I also remember that we were so drenched in the smell, having moved lots of the smoky stuff we salvaged with us to a hotel, that we didn't at first notice it, but man, the people who worked in the hotel sure did.
Fire insurance can go a long way toward this type of thing. Hope you had plenty. Anyone reading this who isn't really interested in experiencing all the details of this type of nightmare firsthand -- GET FIRE INSURANCE.

My girlfriend and I are friends with Rose and were there all day wed packing her apt and moving it to uhaul on 4th ave. Had no idea music critic and fellow ILXor was doing the same in downstairs apt. I'd been to your building before, it was a good location and the yard was nice except for the giant slugs. Sorry you had to go through that and good luck...
