Well, what do you know? Even Reuters couldn't ignore this trip! Although they put some of their patented Reuters spin on it, the mere fact they're covering it at all shows it has made a SUBSTANTIAL impact. Just plain splendid!

I answered the phone today and someone asked to speak with my son Gregory. I said that he wasn't here , he was serving in Iraq. The woman in her most compassionate voice said " Oh I am so sorry" I said you don't have to be sorry for him. He was glad to do it.

How heartbreaking for those parents! You've got to give them credit for even going there.
