Howdy Cousin HK, I fought your financial detractors during your Walk across Dixie (Bob Crook and others) by explaining the value of what you do compared to the small sums that were collected for you. The way I put it to them was in the form of a credit card commercial. I told them that gas for a day and lodging for you and Terry Lee was $100 at most. Your food was about $30 a day and most of us would feed you because we enjoy your company but think about our black brother in a Confederate uniform carrying a battleflag for 1200 miles touting the true history of the South.................priceless. How can you put a price on that? We love you, man. Come see us when you can.
