re: #141 William Lewis

And here’s a really depressing tweet to consider…

Anne Frank would have turned 92 today. If the United States had approved her father’s visa application, she could be an old lady in Brooklyn, celebrating with her family and showing her great-grandkids the diary that told the story of how she got here.

It’s still a source of wonder to me that Anne Frank, Martin Luther King Jr., and Barbara Walters were born within a few months of each other in 1929, yet they seem like (and largely are) people of three completely different eras.

At a much tawdrier level, rock icon Buddy Holly and money grubbing pulpit pimp Kenneth Copeland were born within 4 months of each other in Lubbock Tx in 1936. There ain’t no justice.
