[vejas]

All I know is that the author in one of the memoirs I read 
changed all the names except that of her sisters.

Anyone have knowledge about the legality of using a person's name 
in a
biogrpahy or autobiography?

Thanks,
Atty

That was very touching.  Open heart surgery with
the written word as the scalpel.  Any poetic
structure aside, you made me feel a strong
portion of what you felt.  I say "poertion"
because there's no way I could feel what you felt
in the first place.  I liked the honesty of the
"Don't tell me" parts.  It says "I know I know,
but let me have my greif, I need it right now".
