Hi Steve & Jeffery,

Right on Steve, that's the kind of symbolism Jeffery needs to make the 
situation far more powerful. Simply because people relate to those kinds of 
things making them realize just what the place looks like 5 months later. 
And how bad it really was and still is.

Most of us saw everything on the idiot box with scared and frightened people 
5 months ago and those folks are gone off the screen like a neighbour moving 
away out of sight, so there isn't very much thought about them or very 
little any more.

But the rocking chair? WOW! The message is right in your face.... those 
folks are still some where and not in their homes, if ever they return.

Jeffery you've started, don't let it slip from your hands and stay the 
course for history.
You may not be rewarded today, down the line they will be needed without 
question... Certainly everytime a date anniversary comes along. The State 
Archives, Federal Archives, picture agencies and even some TV net works.
