I'm not sure how you might proceed with this -- there's rather a lot
available to you. You might start with our website (click-on
http://timewitnesses.org ) and then do some searches on the Youthnet website
at http://youth.net/memories/welcome.html and our earlier MEMORIES project
archive at http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/archives/memories.html

If you have specific questions to ask the Panel of Elders you will find
contact addresses on the Timewitnesses website.

(BTW - what's a "gold star mother"? Not a term I'm familiar with).
