I was chatting with an Iranian Student in Iran last night and he shared with me some interesting comments he overheard among his neighbors in reaction to our humanitarian help of the earthquake victims in Bam...

"people here ask each other why we or some of us have been chanting death to America...

they ask each other why we were so naive...

they are surprised by US helps...

and unfortunately TV is silent about the helps US gave out...

all people say that Americans are well-known for their permanent smiles."

Please share my condolences and sympathy with this Iranian student.

If learning about America's generosity can spread throughout the people of Bam, then perhaps they will gain hope.

Thank you so very much for all of your hard work, DoctorZin. You are an inspiration.

Happy New Year, and best wishes.
