Stories like these make me appreciate just how lucky I really am, especially at this time of year. How lucky we all are.

They also help to restore my faith in humanity slightly.

That really is nice that others would help him out (including sending him a Super Colossal Tyrannosaurus from Mattel. Wow!), but best of all he is safe. Honestly a fire is really the only thing I deeply fear the most in my life (and came dangerously close to that a few years back), and not just because of my collection of course, but because of my pets, and obviously having a place to live, etc.

If I'd been living in that city, I'd have happily contributed to his new collection too.
