Yes, Happy Birthday, Pete. It is funny and sad that after all these years you still stand almost unique in a world you were trying to organize to fight the good fight with you. But you have borne witness, which, as the Quakers say, is not nothing; and struggled humanly against an often indifferent and hostile political universe, as Pascal would have said if he had been an activist. Of how many people can it be said that just thinking about them brings a smile to the face; though not perhaps enough new resolve to the soul?

Yours, Peter T.
