Several days ago one of CISCO's senior people held a reception for the ISOC (Internet Society) Trustees and Advisors in her wonderful house near twin peaks in San Fran. The best part of the evening, even better than a splendid sunset, was a performance by a group of Seniors from the Cupertino High School. They had just returned from Japan and I tour of four cities. The group sang beutifully.They were personable bright young people of a spendid mix of ethnic backgrounds -- second generation koreans, chinese, japanese, blacks, and a forth generation californian lead by a very fine black teacher. Best exmple of America I have seen in years. They have been doing this for 12 years` Unfortunately that is all over this year. Budget cuts in the Cupertino area will terminate this group and both California and other countries will miss a chance to hear excellent singers and an example of America and its youth. Sad!!!!! Dave
