Hi John,

Didn't mean to lash out at you.  I've been trying to avoid the horror of 
it.  I know only what I get out of the corner of my eye.  It's too horrible, 
too, too, too horrible.  It's time for a little tar&feathering?  I am choking 
down tears and rage.  Calling my senators and representative now 
seems like writing a letter to Santa Claus.  I don't know what to do!  

Sorry.  


Marsha
