Barbara: Midnight your time would be great. Seems "Peace Round" could ripple -- echo? -- and greet 2010 time zone by time zone...
Little Robyn -- I'm pretty sure I took the lyrics from Jean's "Celebration of Life," but I've noticed "grow" used instead of "dwell" and "children of the earth" instead of "children of all men." Also, sometimes the round begins "O, what a..." and sometimes cuts straight to "What A..." I haven't seen or heard Jean comment on the variations, but I do think it would be great if some sang "grow" and some sang "dwell..." Let the folk process have its way on New Year's Eve == Mark
