the convention center. Different place. I attended a company convention there in '78. It's across from the Hilton (I think) close to the river. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.

7. An NPR reporter who was there |
|

how he said it was the victums fault, he said he didn't say that. Unreal. Just imagine what Iraq is like. A whole country of this kind of "help" and truth.
