This is from an article in today's Chicago Tribune * * * * * * * * * * * * * The full article can be found at: http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/perspective/chi- 0303300213mar30,1,4 416174.story?coll=chi%2Dnewsopinionperspective%2Dhed Faces of Chicago protest War protests left numerous stories untold By Sean D. Hamill and Rudolph Bush. Sean D. Hamill and Rudolph Bush are Tribune staff reporters. Staff reporters Robert Becker, David Heinzmann and Jeff Long also contributed << The stories, photos and television coverage of the anti-war protests that filled Federal Plaza in the Loop and closed Lake Shore Drive in the last week and a half have focused on the conflict between protesters and police. Given the tarnish that lingers on Chicago's image after the tumultuous events surrounding the 1968 Democratic National Convention, that's understandable. But lost in the coverage were moments and people that reflect another side of these events, sometimes funny or moving, sad or surreal. These are some of the tales you haven't heard yet: <snip> By the time the March 20 marchers headed north on Lake Shore Drive, in one of the vehicles caught up in the demonstration was a member of the military, a man named Rob in his late teens or early 20s. Dressed in his formal Army uniform, he attracted a throng of marchers. One after another leaned in to shake his hand, told him they supported him, that they hoped he didn't have to go to Iraq and if he did that he got back safely. And then a few coaxed him out of the car so they could hug him. As police hurried people along, shooing the last marcher past his car, Rob was in tears. "I'm overwhelmed," he said, bowing his head. "I've never had so many people show me so much love." >> ===== \\------>@.@<------// "Jamie C." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sign up for my Chicagoland Ghost Mailing List http://www.onelist.com/subscribe/ChicagolandGhostClub Jamie's Chicagoland Ghost Web Page http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Shadowlands/2007 \\------>@.@<------// __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
