[nabs-l] [Nonetheless] Threw Our Eyes interview, Ride into History, Race for Independence, Wed. June 22, 8:00 pm EDT

[Carly Mihalakis]

Hi, Kurt,

For your information, I was bienucleated as a result of retinal 
blastoma at age 18 months. Yet, we are all very total and cannot 
readily identify which bill we happen to be holding, without too much 
of a production.

It may do you well to remember  that, There is a store of strength if 
people, in this case totals, can unite as a forward thinking army, 
with whose strength,  mountains can be pressed forward.
So, we must get together and begin moving mountains with our unity!
