Subject: [Leica] PAW-Week 2 is up

Friends,

I have added the picture for Week 2 to my PAW site:

http://www.geocities.com/belgiangator/pawindex.htm

Mr. Imerglik is quite a remarkable man. He was part of the large
migration of Polish Jews to Denmark in the late 60s. All his life he has
been blessed with a wonderful voice but has never had the opportunity to
use it in a professional capacity. Now at age 86, he walks with some
difficulty but the voice and the mental energy is that of a 40-year old
man. This picture was taken at a club for Polish Jews in Copenhagen, of
which my father is a member. Mr. Imerglik entertained the members with
old songs in Yiddish and Polish. I was by far the youngest person in the
audience (I am 40). These are the remnants of what once was the largest
Jewish community in Europe.

Comments welcome as always.

Nathan
