Elizabeth and Walter,

I hope you understand how much your recollections are appreciated.  Your 
stories have enabled me to personalize what was otherwise "just" a 
historical iconic photograph and event.  I have a much better understanding 
of the risk, fear and bravery of the participants. One of the reasons I love 
belonging to this mailing list is that people share such stories, which 
serve as a reminder that one person CAN make a difference, and ANY of us can 
be that person.  It honors me to be in the presence of some of those who 
have.

Thank you!
-Bil Gonzalez
