"To laugh often and much; To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, and to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you lived. This is to have succeeded." by Ralph Waldo Emerson Some people who cared about the plight of the Utah ferrets asked questions about SOS that I could not answer. Asking intellegent and logical questions somehow became betrayal. Now some angry people want to know the names of the people who had the right to ask about an organization they were considering donating to...and some malicious, and totally false accusations and gossip are being E-mailed into cyber space. Last I heard, the terrorists had not taken over the country. People still had rights. This is something that we will shortly be going to war for-- This right to question is something many have died for. Let us not forget that. "Kind words can be short and easy to speak but their echoes are endless."............Mother Teresa (1910-1997) Let us all speak kind words today. There are over 200 Utah ferrets that need our unity and our labor and our money and our love. Lisette [Posted in FML issue 3546]
