On a trip to the Vancouver Aquarium in 1992, our school group were honoured to share our experience with the Olsen family, complete with the two twins, Mary-Kate and Ashley, aged all of 6 at that time. Their parents were also there, as well as their chronically ignored older brother. The twins ran around non-stop.
At one point, I broke off from the group to go exploring on my own. As I was approaching a corner, I heard stampeding of little feet and stopped. Both the twins came barreling 'round, not at all aware of their immediate surroundings. Had I not stopped, they would have both ran directly into each of my knees, felling them. I could have stopped them. I could have saved the world. One day, I will have to atone and finish the job...
