Greetings:

Just saw the 5-day weather forecast, for Dallas, and the weather for Thursday,
Jan 20, 2005 is partly sunny skies, with temps in the high 40's.
Realizing that 40's could be cold for one's hands, I recommend that everyone
playing hand drums, wear lightweight cloth gloves to protect your hands.

Remember - we are going to begin arriving at 10:30 am and we WILL be drumming
precisely at 11 am - in synchronization with the 1000 Drums for Peace across the
USA who will be drumming at noon ET. Be sure to BRING CHAIR & water.

Drums not guns, is using this opportunity to Drum for Peace and stay positive in
our intention to BE PEACE in the world. It is time for all peeps on earth to
hold PEACE & LOVE sacred in their hearts and minds so that all of us can get
along and be accepting of others without violence.

Here's what Martin Luther King said:
" The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral, begetting
the very thing it seeks to destroy. Instead of diminishing evil, it multiplies
it. Through violence you may murder the liar, but you cannot murder the lie, nor
establish the truth. Through violence, you murder the hater, but you do not
murder hate. In fact, violence merely increases hate.... Returning violence for
violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid
of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate
cannot drive out hate: Only love can
do that." - Martin Luther King, Jr.
