I know why I am a Rotarian when I hear John Germ, Rotary International President Elect, speak of placing two magic drops of liquid in an infant child's mouth in Africa, and asking its mother what its sibling's name is who is crawling on the floor at their feet. I know why I am a Rotarian when John conveys that the mother answered that the child was not named because it is defective. It crawls because it has polio. I share John's belief that we c annot allow polio to continue to ravish the children of the world.
