curator of Rare Books at UNC
until retirement. I grew up obsessed with keeping everything, a use will
always be found. To me this act if totally beyond belief, at least they
could have
offered the collections to the US Library of Congress, Greenland, the UK or

Long Live the Lincoln Brigade, Picasso, Federico Garcia Lorca and the
memory of the people of Guernica, the Disappeared in Argentina, the Allende
coalition in Chile
......and the Tibetans.

To cheer you and fellow Canadians up behold the stained glass windows in
Sainte-Chapelle Chapel in Paris, France, the most beautiful I have ever

old English style
for churches in the US; he was also a great painter and lived in Rodin's
studio for a while when he was in a student.
Behold:
Google images for Sainte-Chapelle Chapel in Paris, France.
