Friends, Good morning. When we were walking together the other day, Andrea mused about the days “B.C.,” or Before Covid. We started to discuss what it will be like “A.C.” I thought about this construct—at one moment our perspective changes from “before” to “after.” We speak of buildings being “pre-war” and we think of air travel “before 9/11.” And of course there are the arbitrary divisions of decades and centuries. But this feels different. It feels like there will be a sharp dividing line between what was and what will be.
