December 7, 1941

I was taking an afternoon nap upstairs on Midway Lane in Bethesda. The New York Philharmonic was on the radio. Then, the music was interrupted with a news bulletin. The announcer couldn't pronounce the word "Oahu" but the message was clear.

I am very thankful on many, many levels that so much has changed in the past sixty-four years.
