Thanks for taking us along wit...What a moving tour. Thanks for taking us along with you.<br /><br />Your local saints and temple workers have a particularly dramatic piece of local history, which you have made to feel real by your placing it in the whole local context of geography and people. I think that removes the sensationalism that usually accompanies dramatic but ill-understood events, and makes it more poignant and significant precisely because the events fit naturally into the fabric of history and because the historic people you described to them were real people and not cartoon characters who lived only during the moments of the massacre. I'm sure your tour members felt that even though they likely wouldn't recognize exactly why your presentation worked so well. They're lucky to have had you for a guide.Ardishttp://www.keepapitchinin.orgnoreply@blogger.com
