the world with over 770,000 people in attendance and 25,000 aircraft. To say it is
overwhelming is an understatement so today's story is an attempt at giving you an
overview of the experience. This story will take time to load as it contains 78
pictures and a QuickTime VR panorama.

 A Woman's View:
Same Sex Marriage- Wednesday, August 27, 2003
by: Barbara Reid
Barbara noted that "With all the current serious concerns to pay attention to,
such as the Blackout, floods, all the fires, etc., and disrupted lives, this same-sex
thing is rather ridiculous to be spending so much time on." She felt it was
time that we heard what a woman, a "mom," a "misses," has to
say about this contentious topic that will take up a lot of time when the house sits
this fall.

 An upside down world led by the finest
liars- Friday, August 22, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Prior to the US invasion of Iraq there was no terrorism in the country now it is
an everyday occurance, as the country is still almost entirely without power, unemployment
is the norm and now even the UN attempting to bring aide to the place has taken a
serious hit as the man who had been expected to succeed the Secretary General is
a victim with many others including two Canadians. Mr. deSantis leads us to consider
some of the underlying issues, be sure to check out the references.
