This morning's prompt is 'cold sink'.

or

I need another character for a character A day. A face, a place and a problem?

A baby and a hospital, the problem is too much of a good thing, too many babies being born, not enough staff to go around...

I need to reread 'Alas Babylon', because the doctor kept his fears about how the 'wet firecracker war' (as Heinlein referred to a limited nuclear war elsewhere in his stories), limited but quite destructive, had the doc concerned that there would be no future and was relieved when healthy babies started arriving, like Easter or Christmas. He didn't bother burdening anyone else with this until afterwards.

Good man.
