Charles R ussell:
Thank you, and once again, thank you all for being
with us today. We will adjou rn to the Newark Museum, which is just
three blocks away, for a reception, and we invite you to join us there,
to continue the discussions we've had here.

sources that normally do
not come into contact. I
like this book a lot."
