 Thomas recently saw something online that he'd like to revisit, but the popular media/user content site it was on is having an outage right now.
+As part of a trip Susanna is taking, she's currently en route to her next destination via public transportation.  Her connection is variably spotty, weak, or non-existent, and she knows things will be no different in the first hours after her immediate arrival.  Rather than lose it to idleness, she'd like to spend her time working on a project.  She doesn't know the details of the APIs she's using by heart, though, and she normally uses a popular, developer-oriented web site for documentation.
 Aki sees the makings of an excited discussion are about to unfold online, but he has to step out soon.  He decides to let it brew so that he can read a fuller discussion later, rather than just the few comments that he can right now.  When he returns, several comments have been deleted.  He sees that one of Thomas's comments is still alive, though, and he knows that Susanna had managed to read much of the discussion before it was removed, because she had just been talking to him about it on his way up.
