Dear Readers,
The Peace theme brought us many excellent articles and it was hard for David to choose. You may notice the extra four page color cover we've added, also a new Bay Area Directory.
I'd like to share the following sent to me by a very special person who types with a pencil eraser on his computer at home.
Insignificance - by Douglas Hayes
"I look out my window watching the rain hitting the pane, I begin to wonder like a child if those rain drops contain some secret communities with people going about their lives like us. As the rain falls, time goes by for them with people living their lives completely unaware of their sudden conclusion on my window. Due to their collective arrogance as a race, their fate is in their deity's hands. But they will fall on my window, perhaps if they are lucky they will fall on the grass giving them some more time to discover their doomed rain drop planet. For time is relative, and perhaps one of our minutes is a century to them. Perhaps due to their collective arrogance they cannot conceive that they are an insignificant little rain drop in an enormous world; their world is in a huge universe of planets infinitely bigger than their own. As I thought about this in my room I heard a last rain drop crash upon my window pane, and everything went dark."
