So I was going through my dvr list tonight as I was catching up on this weeks 
recordings, when I stopped on the recordings of "The Colbert Report." I was 
scanning down the list and saw one of the interviews was with Lonn Taylor, a 
historian from Texas, regarding the origins of the "Star Spangled Banner," and 
the flag over Ft McHenry. I thought surely this could not be the same Lonn 
Taylor who with his wife were at some of the early days at Winedale. 
Particularly I remember him there in my fall class of 1973 and then in the 
summers following. There are so few of us from left that era, much less who 
would be on The Colbert Report. But indeed it was the same guy. At this time I 
cannot remember what his role was in Winedale and its history but for sure it 
was one and the same man. His voice had the same tone and accent. I hate to say 
it, but I was surprised to see him among the living, much less on national 
television.  I think very few of us would remember him, but seeing the video, 
will doubtlessly trigger some memory.
