Dennis,

That is a very good piece. I'm saving the video to my pc.

Interesting also is that I too had perfect attendance from 7th through 12th
grades. Of the several things for which I was given certificates at our
Senior Recognition Ceremony at Akron Central High School I was definitely
most proud of the perfect attendance certificate.

On 11/22/1963 I was 18 and out of high school and went (commuted) to Kent
State University in the morning and worked at the Akron Public Library in
the afternoon. After LBJ became President my higher education plans changed
and I finished my education with BCT and AIT at Fort Leonard Wood, MO and
US Army Engineer School at Fort Belvoir, VA.
