The Little Guys Knew

Sunday evening as Tom is hiking around with Kobae, every ant pile he encounters is frantic with activity. Tom thinks it's odd that after the big one hit Friday night they could have kept this pace up for 48 hours doing reconstruction. While the sky at the time was just barely partly cloudy, 90 minutes later another storm tore into Base Camp though this time leaving little rain. Now Tom wonders, while Tom couldn't see it coming, they could feel it coming. So as not to go through the Friday night experience again, Tom will be watching ant piles to see if it's a constant warning indicator of what's coming.
