Hi Aaron,

First an Irishman is never ignorant, sometimes we are uninformed, but never
ignorant. <VERY BIG GRIN>

Seriously they are the daughters of your ancestors, and mine, than came to
the states over 200 years ago and told king george that all men and women are
DIVINE not just kings. (The lack of capitals is intentional.)

Seriously, Daughters of the American Revolution. One of our oldest, proudest
and worthy patriotic, and charitable institutions.

There are several good ladies on this list that can speak to the subject
better that I. Just had to put my two cents in.

Slainte'

Bill
