I did read the play. I'm doing an interview kind of thing as a project now. One of the questions is "How did Ruth and Walter meet?" I'm pretty sure this isn't discussed in the book (meaning I can make up an answer, but was it mentioned?

Any sites or suggestions...I was thinking along the lines of a foldable box with cards inside but although I've found lots of box designs and templates they're missing the X factor, or an element of surprise... Thanks to all who answer :)

The most famous of these is Admiral Jellico who has written a poem and signed it with date.

Does the American public still believe that the bombing was justified? Or was it tantamount to a war crime?

"The Japanese had, in fact, already sued for peace. The atomic bomb played no decisive part, from a purely military point of view, in the defeat of Japan." -Fleet Admiral Chester W. Nimitz,

"The use of [the atomic bombs] at Hiroshima and Nagasaki was of no material assistance in our war against Japan. The Japanese were already defeated and ready to surrender." Admiral William D. Leahy, Chief of Staff to President Truman.

"Based on a detailed investigation of all the facts, and supported by the testimony of the surviving Japanese leaders involved, it is the Survey's opinion that certainly prior to 31 December 1945, and in all probability prior to 1 November 1945, Japan would have surrendered even if the atomic bombs had not been dropped, even if Russia had not entered the war, and even if no invasion had been planned or contemplated." - U.S. Strategic Bombing Survey

I was in Wembley, Kingsbury, Edgware, and Hendon today and did'nt see any poppies being worn except by a few white people although all Common Wealth Countries were in Whitehall for the ceremony. I know most of the people that have been welcomed to this country were not here during the war (all though the poppy appeal is for helping service men now) but they don't seem to realise that if this country would of lost the war they would never of been able to have the freedon under the Nazi to live here at all.
Lets start pulling together for a better future.

So last night I thought I would do some art. I got a huge paper mache lion's face coming right out of the canvas roaring... But now upon waking up today I have no idea what to do with it!!

What should I put around the lions face? I was thinking maybe a rainbow coloured mane but I would need to put something at the bottom to fill up some space.

P.S. Can you blowdry paper mache to make it dry faster? The lion's face has been drying for 12 hours already and it is still wet.
