This land is your land

The highlight for me of the "We are one" concert at Lincoln Memorial was not musical but symbolic. It was the sight of Pete Seeger singing "This Land is Your Land" to the president elect and a gathering of thousands. This was a complete and welcome suprise.

I'm such a Google fanboy  that they are always my first choice for technology. However the folks at Amazon give me money when folks buy stu
