US Capitol Miracle?
On March 25, James Twyman and representatives from Communities of Peace (www.communitiesofpeace.org) gathered on the west lawn of the US Capitol to commemorate the Season For Non-Violence. During the ceremony a mile long quilt called "The Children's Cloth of Many Colors" was laid on the grass in the form of an enormous peace sign. The quilt was there for no more than one hour and was then removed.

The next morning a call was received by the Capitol Police asking why there was a peace sign blazed into the grass. In fact, the grass where the quilt lie was greener and longer than the rest of the lawn. The response from around the world has been extraordinary. Please help us spread the word of this miracle. For more information please read the attached emails from James reporting the incident.

9. It's the effort of a lefty capital groundskeeper (probably a DUer)
who left the peace symbol "unmowed." What if groundskeepers around the country started doing that? And folks on their private lawns? I think I'll do it myself!

11. I've seen a house on a busy street...
...with a big peace symbol made of Christmas lights on the lawn. And it's a rather wealthy neighborhood too.
