When I first heard it on NPR, years ago I quickly sent for an audio tape of it. It does give the chills. It was an entirely different era. Kudos to NPR for keeping it available.

Believe it or not, I spend 20 minutes searching for this about two weeks ago. I remember being moved by it when I first heard it on NPR about 10 years ago. For some reason it just popped into my head a couple of weeks ago after not thinking about it for years. Apprently it popped into yours too. Maybe there is something in the air(waves). If anyone hasn't heard it already, listen to it now. It will give you chills, and make you think of America and greatness together. Potter:
