While I’d like to take this moment to wish everyone a happy holiday, I also want each of us to remember the sacrifices made, not only by soldiers, but by average citizens: teachers, union workers, inventors, librarians, government employees, cooks, salespeople, artists, visionaries, etc, etc.  We give our thanks to the productivity, personal and collective responsibility, and the grand creativity found throughout our 236 year history, dating to the signing of the Declaration of Independence.   HL
