Our friends at Spectrum tell me they're boosting internet speeds for Thanksgiving week as families convene (and place more demands on networks). Households with gamers can give thanks

We've heard from many people who are interested in attending memorials in the United Kingdom or the United States – but Dr. Jane's wishes were that people honour her locally.
