"I learn nothing when I am speaking."

As with speaking, I learn very little when I am typing, so I'll keep this short and share an article written by another author.

On this date in 1945, Little Boy was dropped over Hiroshima from a B-29, and the airplane was named Enola Gay by her son.

About a mile from ground zero lived Sadako Sasaki. Little Boy fell near the little girl when she was two.

When she was twelve she was diagnosed with leukemia, and the condition was named atom bomb disease by her mother.

In August of 1955, Sadako's best friend Chizuko came to the hospital with paper for folding origami cranes.
