***I was 7 years old, Bob. At that age we have not yet learned to censor our perceptions of reality***

Yes, I see. Still, you remember the incident; it had a profound effect upon you.

I wandered out of a different era. When I was 7 my mother put me on a Greyhound bus in Kansas City bound for Nashville. There I had to walk a block or so to the Trailways terminal and find the bus for Cookville (where the tornado hit last week) where I was met.

That wasn't all that strange, I suppose. I spent the first three years of my life in an orphanage due to WWII. You learn a bit of self sufficiency in an orphanage.

Any way, your tale of seeing Ben Hur was captivating.
