Franz: I do not think your post was too long by any means. And I'm very pleased that you said what you said. It does help to put the times in context of what else was going on at the time.

The other night I watched, again, the TV production of "Scandalize My Name," which included live interviews with Fredrick O'Neil, Canada Lee, Harry Belefonte, etc. That show is such a "time trip" for me. While I don't remember meeting any of them personally, what was happenning in Seattle at the same time was the same thing.

It made my blood boil ... all over again! CHEERS, Bob
