and it truly gives me pleasure to learn about the past, after all, the past along with the present, makes the future eh? A nice story about civil rights...I know of some civil rights efforts on the parts of old friends, long gone, perhaps I can dig up more on one guy (he's gone now), that paid for the highway sign going into STLMO for the gay pride weekend. He would pay for the sign and loved it when it was 'right in their faces as you drove from downtown STLMO west. An attorney from Hillsboro too. The memories are profound and fond to remember.
