Thanks for the reply, Sylvia. Georgena is a pioneer, amongst the others in her time. I am of the generation that was born as these women were breaking the barriers. What a great time that was. Sadly, us Gen X'ers are the first to receive the benefits of the labours of these women but do not always give pause to what we have been given by these very gutsy and envisioned women. I was moved and enlightened by her video; it has just been one of those days that I have given pause to many things in my life...
