Hi, Steven, Thanks for the article. With all the troubles in the world today, it's nice to read that there is some "Good" in the world. Kind of lifts the spirits.
There was a similar story recently in the Toronto Globe and Mail, about someone (can't remember who, or what nationality, but he may have been an English industrialist or diplomat or something) who spirited hundreds or thousands of Jews out of Nazi Germany, at great personal risk. One of those that he saved was Joseph Schlesinger, a well known Canadian Broadcasting Corporation television journalist, who was 14 at the time. He didn't know until very recently who had saved him, but finally did manage to meet the person. The "savior", like the Leitz family, remained anonymous for many years after the war, because he didn't want publicity for his courageous acts - he felt he was merely performing his duty to mankind. Sorry to ramble on so OT, but I think that these things are important. Thanks again. regards, frank steven gilson wrote: > Here is an article from my local paper discribing the Leitz' families efforts to >help Jewish people escape persecution: > > http://www.jsonline.com/onwisconsin/arts/oct02/86006.asp > > It's nice to see some photo-geeks seeing the bigger picture. > > Steven. > -- > __________________________________________________________ > Sign-up for your own FREE Personalized E-mail at Mail.com > http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup > > "Free price comparison tool gives you the best prices and cash back!" > http://www.bestbuyfinder.com/download.htm -- "The optimist thinks this is the best of all possible worlds.
