RE: collaborative project in Europe

I saw a couple of replies earlier, then nothing. My mail
seems flakey and I'm not sure I've been getting everything. Have there
been any posts on this subject since the 11th? Has anyone done
something, and I've just missed the messages?
I started thinking, why should this be limited to Europe?
We celebrate this day in the U.S. too. Only here, Nov. 11th is Veterans
Day and marks all wars, not just WW1.
I shot two panoramas at the VA Home in Minneapolis, with the
Gov., and couple of senators, and the real VIPS, an audience full of
genuine war heroes.
I had no idea this was going to be such a gut wrenching
emotional ceremony. I was so choked up I could barely work.
One speaker couldn't stop crying as he told his story:
". then Jim told the Captain (sob) PLEASE! I want to (sob) go get Bill
(sob) !!!
The captain said, no, I'll not lose another man.
But when the captain left, SOB, Jim, SOB, went ANYWAY!!!!! SOB!!!!
Ouch! That hurt!

Subject: collaborative project in Europe
The idea just came to me so I share it with you for obvious reasons:
the day after tommorrow is 11 November (WW1 end) a time of
commemoration for events bound to be forgotten sometime
in a near future. I thought it was a good idea
for a pano event to share, I know every village in Belgium
and France will have its ceremony and even when not, the
monuments are just about everywhere here. I don't know how
or even if it is commemorated in Germany, Austria and elsewhere.
I hope this could be achieved across borders.
This is proposed in the spirit of the wwp no winners no loosers.
with enough participants a website will be set up.
And to those who think it is a short notice, it is.
But so was the end of WWI, just 2 days.
