What elementary school was that? At Runkle, the kids who marched got in major trouble. I seem to remember walking out, and then immediately walking back. Classic. I got to protest without actually doing anything, or earning teacher ire. This was an interesting and un-thought-of take on my own memory. I remember wearing a 1960s yellow polyester dress with a giant sunflower on it, hollering about oil for a moment. And then meandering back to class :) Rock on with your poetry, Giles, Diana Whoa.
