it has the same feel. the idea they may come back to this town as members of congress or senators is not at all farfetched. i think you re right about that. i also think this is seems almost generational development. there s also a stand out in any given enterprise. the number of stand outs that we ve seen from parkland students, my daughter has been very active organizing locally here in conjunction with them and the people, the kids from newtown who were on earlier. they re sophistication. they have all grown up with social media. i think this is the positive side of the facebook and instagram generation and their affinity for each other and ultimately their bs detector. you ve been to a lot of demonstrations and marches in the last 30, 40 years and i ve nef been at one today with such an intense feeling of
