Hi Christine,

Yes, I did see the documentary about the snow monkeys. I also had a tear in my eye when I watched the mother monkey grieving over her baby. Your story makes me recall seeing the South African heart doctor (I can't remember his name), who did the first heart transplant, being interviewed about 20 years ago. He was asked if he was still doing his research. He answered no because he was now ironically getting arthritis in his hand so bad that it was too painful to operate. But the main reason was that the last time that he sacrificed a monkey for research he returned to the mate's cage and received a haunting look of perplexed betrayal that he could never forget. He was tearful as he told the story , and so was I. He never did another transplant.

I would like to see "Burning Times". I have a feeling that if the Christian wrong gets any more power, we will be seeing times like that again.
