London: Now and Then

London during the Blitz

I have been listening to the reports on the Terror attack on London to day and am struck by the way it's people are handling this. You can truly see that they are the Children of those who did not buckle during the Blitz. Accounts, like the one on Daily Kos; Getting to work in London today, reaffirm just how strong people are in Great Britain. They are effected by events, very admirable to see such people respond in times of crisis. Here in the States, I do not think people would have been as calm given the nature of the attack.
