Should read: "from getting their shoes / pant legs"
OR
wet = dry

Reader's choice.

Yes, Mee, it's really a Sludge Monster and not somebody who used garbage bags to keep their shoes / pant legs wet in all that gick.

I'm assuming, Mr. Motts, that the "lightening" is a flashlight in hand with a slow shutter speed?

Nicely done picture, though. I almost thought it was a reflection, what with the two wheel chairs and all.

Note the way the shirt is spread out, like it has too much starch in it. It couldn't be ironed, so they used it as a rug.

Yes, a picture like this can bring up a lot of questions. Like it was said before, why was the shirt left there? What happened to the person wearing the shirt? Is that dry blood on the floor by the shirt? Why is a gurney in a power house?
And is the yellow object off to the left an extra engine driven generator? It sure dose look like it dose it not. Also a great picture
