9. I have watched it a number of times.

A thing of beauty.
Another post had the poetry:

Soaring through nature's finest show.
Denali, the great one,
soaring under the midnight sun.
And then the extremes. In the winter time,
it's the frozen road that is competing
with the view of ice fogged frigid beauty,
the cold though, doesn't it split
the Cheechakos from the Sourdoughs?

And then in the summertime such extreme,
summertime about a hundred and fifty degrees hotter
than just some months ago,
than just some months from now,
with fireweed blooming along the frost heaves
and merciless rivers that are rushing and carving
and reminding us that here,
Mother Nature wins.
It is as throughout all Alaska
that big wild good life teeming along the road
that is north to the future.

So very funny!

[gratuitous]

13. I'll have to watch it later

But is anyone playing bongos in the background? The slower the better, until the very end. Ideally, the audience should snap its fingers rather than applaud.

27. The article was on ICH today-

Here is a link to it:
http://informationclearinghouse.info/article23148.htm
ENJOY!!!
Love ya and I still have my signed copy from the talk I met
you at along with NSMA in SOCAL!
BHN

"William Rivers Pitt, a best-selling author who wrote "The Greatest Sedition is Silence," recently raised the emotional question of whether U.S. adoption of torture has debased the international standards for treatment of prisoners and that our enemies may now feel that they can torture Americans. Pitt specifically expressed concern about Army Pvt. Bowe Bergdahl, who was captured by the Taliban in Afghanistan last month."

From the article.
Helen has read your book!
