Maybe he wants to get somebody to acknowlege the truth? This is the first time I've seen it, myself, so maybe it was worth repeating. Did it happen? I know something about California's past, and it sounds not only possible, but very likely. In the 1930s people in San Jose lynched 3 guys and strung them up from trees. For decades people would go to those trees and strip off the bark as souvenirs. Only difference in the two stories is that several newspapers reported the San Jose incident. -- dk@crl.com No special rights for breeders! Stop Clinton's $600 per San Francisco child welfare plan.
