Greetings:
Here's another fond memory. When Nixon was resigning, as Karen pointed out, Caroline and I sang "Only Remembered," featuring the line that says "Only the truths that in life we have spoken..." We finished the song, and 'way up in the back of the audience, someone (never found out who) started singing "America the Beautiful." The rest of the audience sort of caught it and began to join in, first just a few, then more and more. By the time we got to the end of the first verse, the entire Hollow was filled with the sound of a thousand voices celebrating the fact that our system really seems to work. God, it was moving!
