And the cool thing was that it's 14 miles from "Independence" to
"Liberty".  If only it was that easy.  Was it not Ben Franklin that
said, "He who gives up liberty for security, deserves neither."  Read
the Patriot Act and weep for our country.  Old Ben would be rolling in
his grave.  

Peace is Patriotic!
