LEST WE FORGET

	         No man is an island entire of itself;
         every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a 
promonitory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend's or of thine own were.

         Any man's death diminishes me, because I an involved in mankind.
And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls: it tolls for thee.

						      John Donne (1572-1631)
