I met a remarkable woman this weekend while I was in lake tahoe for a
george clinton concert.  She is 36 and spent some time in jail in Virginia.
She told me that the quaker people who visited her and held quaker worship
were inspirational for her, and offered the only quiet time she had for
three years.  The "two old quaker ladies" kept her sane and offered no
judgement, and she was very grateful.  She is a happy, healthy mother of
three almost teenagers.

I am very glad to be a part of such an institution, and also inspired by
these actions.
