Paul, I'll have to look for photos. But among those who were very active in the anti-war movement are Gren Whitman, Karen Olson (still in CV), Dee Ann Mims, Dean Pappas (lives in northwest suburbs), Vickie Pollard (moved to Maine), Jo Ann Robinson (still in CV), Megan and Walter Shook (now in Roland Park), Dave Greene (Megan's brother, ran for House of Delegates in 43rd), and probably a bunch of others I cannot think of right now. Some are still in CV or nearby. Dave and Megan founded The Crack of Doom Coffeehouse on Maryland Ave.; it was where there is now a Korean restaurant; I think that that is at the southwest corner of 22nd or 23rd Street. I'm not sure whether Brendan Walsh and his wife Willa Bickham (I'm not sure of the spelling) lived in CV then, but they also were extremely active in the Interfaith Peace Mission founded by Phil Berrigan. Brendan and Willa run Viva House, a Catholic Worker effort to help the poor and the down and out in South Baltimore. Also, the Peace Action Center was located in a row house at the southeast corner of 26th and Maryland. Bill O'Connor, who died very recently, was very active with Phil Berrigan, and I learned at Bill's memorial service that the napalm used by the Catonsville 9 to burn draft files was mixed in Bill's basement. His widow, Marilyn, is someone you definitely should interview and still is in CV. Steve. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: In a message dated 11/15/06 12:40:38 P.M.

Paul, I heard that someone's ashes are in a three-foot stone column in front of a house in my block.

Re: [Chat] [Discussion] Charles Village History
Thanks everyone for all the good hints in which to investigate the history in the 1960s-2000. Oddly, its a period where not many documents have made their way into public archives yet, so its the most difficult to research. That's why we will rely on you all to help us along! I'll be asking lots of questions in the next two months, and hopefully you will all help just by reminiscing where you shopped and who you met, etc. Why was the store where Donna's is now, strange? Intriguing! Paul Paul K.
