and imagination
and the dark hug of time,
sweetness
and tangibility...

Rebecca Murphy is spreading the word...
from Ayala Leyser, a friend of Laura Weathered from the neighborhood arts council: "Please help me study attitudes towards Faith and lack of faith in today's society, by responding to a short anonymous questionnaire. My interest is purely academic, I am writing a book and am trying to validate (or discard) some of my thoughts on Faith. Results are not going to any interest group, commercial or spam list of any kind. Your anonymity is guaranteed." Click the link to go take the survey.
