> 2. THE DIGNITY
> Disciplined queues for water and groceries. Not a rough word or a
> crude gesture.
> 3. THE ABILITY
> The incredible architects, for instance. Buildings swayed but didn’t fall.
> 4. THE GRACE
> People bought only what they needed for the present, so everybody
> could get something.
> 5. THE ORDER
> No looting in shops. No honking and no overtaking on the roads. Just
> understanding.
> 6. THE SACRIFICE
> Fifty workers stayed back to pump sea water in the N-reactors. How
> will they ever be repaid?

8. THE TRAINING
> The old and the children, everyone knew exactly what to do. And they
> did just that.
9. THE MEDIA
> They showed magnificent restraint in the bulletins. No silly
> reporters. Only calm reportage.
10. THE CONSCIENCE
> When the power went off in a store, people put things back on the
> shelves and left quietly
