Letters: Peterman with a Canadian View
January 25, 2011
Ran out of time this week; sorry for the lack of political briefs or a Dan Grobstein File. However, Kent Peterman offers a Canadian view of recent events:
“We have a unique vantage point here aboard the International Space Station,” he said.
“As I look out the window, I see a very beautiful planet that seems very inviting and peaceful. Unfortunately, it is not. These days, we are constantly reminded of the unspeakable acts of violence and damage we can inflict upon one another, not just with our actions, but also with our irresponsible words. We’re better than this. We must do better.”
-Astronaut Scott Kelly (brother-in-law of Gabrielle Giffords) from space.
