    haha! That's brilliant - Adlai Stevenson is a man I find quite interesting, especially since he lived around here and has a lovely home in the town I used to live in with my parents/siblings.

    Sarah Jane, how interesting! To be honest, I had no idea who he was *blush* -- a brief look at Wikipedia has enlightened me.

    Yours in Christ,
