<HTML><FONT FACE=arial,helvetica><FONT SIZE=2>Dear Friends:
<BR>
<BR>I thank you for all of your conversations. It's one thing to feel the closeness of America coming together to comfort and support one another, it is yet a more powerful energy to feel the closeness of the world community. Unfortunately, it takes a tradgedy of such immense proportion to cause this to happen. Nevertheless, the world is having an "I - Thou" moment, to quote Buber. Let's hope and pray that our leaders don't blow this by doing something totally stupid. Piling more hate on top of hate doesn't take us to where we need to be.
<BR>
<BR>In Love,
