Re: Fw: Plane crash

Wow.

I just found out through a Christmas letter that one of my cousins is 
related by marriage to one of the Pennsylvania coal miners who was 
rescued from the horrible situation we all heard about a few weeks ago. 
I hope your brother is okay.
Precarious indeedy. Life is much too short to let the business 
roundtable try to run our kid's lives for them. To work, to arms, onward 
through the fog!
