    Question Couple questions about the Gathering...

    Great photos, I see in the news there were about 30,000 people there, but it doesn't seem very crowded.

    Were there as many folks as expected?

    Were most of them Americans?

    Thanks. I spent all morning writing and rewriting my thoughts. I could have written ten times as much!

    It was such a moving day, one that me or any of the 30,000 will remember forever.
