[stylist] a poem

[Barbara Hammel]

You misunderstand, I think.  I may have not conveyed the message clearly.  I 
wrote it because I couldn't believe that that Congressman from Florida could 
insinuate that not passing health care reform would be creating another 
Holocaust.  He has since recanted but he still said it.  I did mean to imply 
that nothing here could ever be compared to what Hitler did.  I realize that 
it could happen again but not because of lack of government control.
Ahmedinijad is the one with his head in the sand to look history in the face 
and deny it.

Is Sukkot the feast of the booths?  You know, the one they were celebrating 
in Esther, I think?  Uh, the harvest?
Barbara

Snow is God's way of reminding us that beauty can be found even in the 
coldest hearts.
