3. I would rec this more than once if I could

Buffalo Springfield will always be my favorite.
I remember explaining the meaning and reason for their song to my 15 year old son, born in 1980. He didn't know anything about the Vietnam protests and Kent State.

4. Kent State

Might FINALLY be answered. The truth. The UN, in August I think, gave the US one year to answer all the unanswered questions. That is solely due to Lauren Krause's untiring, unfaltering work on it for the last 4 decades. Lauren is Allison Krause's sister.

I would like to say thanks for the additional k&r but that goes to Green Day. Thanks though

5. thanks for that information.

two factoids totally missed my radar. It will be interesting to see if anything meaningful will come of it. but I appreciate deeply that someone tried hard to see it through. a true hero.

Laurel IS an amazing woman and loving sister.

10. Do you know her?

[Delmette]

11. No, I don't know her.

I do have a sister very much like her, so I know the extraordinary love and dedication it takes to fight the system for someone who can't.

[marym625]

12. How lucky you are to have a sister like her

and how lucky she is to have you, who recognize her love and dedication.
