About While visiting the Boston Holocaust memorial, one of the moving moments for me was seeing all those numbers...ID numbers tatooed into the skin and arms of the undesirables rounded up by the Nazis.

Why aren't more Americans disgusted and speaking out about snatching people off the streets and flying them to Secret Prisons in Eastern Europe and Asia?

It's a thin line between 'terrorist' and 'undesirable'.

Paul, you and i well know that this isn't the place to talk about {good choice for vertical pano} how some still doubt that the Bush administration {interesting perspective}will do anything that it can get away with...and that they regard themselves as above all laws...we just can't be talking about how those{nice reflections} who took the potion don't believe in secret flights and clandestine prisons{apt title} and dang it!, if our gov't denies it, then that {thought provoking comp} is the final answer,right? You do still believe in the Easter bunny,right? ROFLMBO

peace,gayle

nice work PAUL. love the blurry/curved numbers here. so many metaphors in this interestingly cropped frame that i can't think straight. the tree in the reflection reminds of a visit to site of Dachau as a child in the 1970's.
great to see your stuff and read your words once again.
cheers brother,
erik

Not a thin line so much as a change in spelling my friend . . . Very well done.

Regards,
