We're cool. There's only been one or two times I've actually been "scared" over those 10 years. Otherwise, it's just been very curious, and I actually feel honored to have experienced it. It's okay....it's their house as well.

The theory of the temporal shift of the item and therefore it not being exposed to oxygen plus time is interesting.
