<<Re: Your dad's hospital stay at VA hospital: That is good news to hear. One of the hallmarks of a "civilized" society is how well it treats its elderly. Listening to author Stephen Ambrose on C-Span2 this afternoon (excellent program), he mentioned that we still have 6 million World War II veterans living. It is important that we strive to improve our VA hospitals, if nothing more than to say thanks to these brave men and women.>>

I was impressed that he would choose it over Barnes. BTW, I bought Ambrose's book on the transcontinental railroad. Just started to read it.
Talk to you later. Going to the Rams game tonight!

And re the Veterans....Small gifts for Christmas for the men and women in the hospitals are very much in order. I belong to a national group that does this every year, and even more would be appreciated. Call to the hospitals to see what would be needed. Playing cards, note paper, writing papers of any kind, books, magazines and subscriptions, etc.
