In honor of his birthday, Scott is taking his students in his 60's class on a peace march through the streets of Lebanon (Oregon.)
Already had his first spate of protestors. One student has a brother "over there" and felt it would be disloyal to join a march against the war. The student's family was angry when they read the assignment sheet---to make a sign promoting peace, and carry it in a peace march. Dad made a copy of the assignment and sent it to Lars Larsen.
Scott pointed out to him (the student) that it's not a war protest, it's a peace march. He also suggested that the student was welcome to have his sign say "support our troops," or do an alternative assignment.
I'll let you all know how it goes. If you happen to be in the Lebanon area around 2pm today, join us, the water's fine.
