In sensational stories, does "I was almost there!" count as witnessing an event?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:Well, in summer 1980 I was this close » « to being sent to the Colstrip power plant when my assignment at Oregon finished up. Instead, I went to Connecticut, and since then I have never gotten to Montana. But in other news… with all of the long-distance driving that I’ve done over the years, I’ve seen “the aftermath” of a lot of auto accidents, but no shootings yet. I’m glad for that. Wrecked cars and EMTs are bad enough.
