Another Fallows Question

Here is an op-ed in The New York Times about the "Fallows question":

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/07/opinion/where-history-is-being-made.html

I'd like to add another question to the Fallows. Something like - "did you ever move anywhere you would be in danger?" Or "how can we poor slobs feel any connection at all to people like you who walk between the raindrops?"

The NYT clearly is not written for normal people.
