The Cost of War

My dear friend James Morrison sent me an email this morning that directed me to the Quaker's American Friends Service Committee website, where one may download .jpg or .pdf versions of images that relate the terrible economic cost of the war in Iraq in comparative terms. Eveready for the learning moment, I fired up Adobe Fireworks and noodled with turning these into an animated gif, something I have only limited experience doing. Here's the result. Once you have absorbed the message, click on over to the Friends site and sign the letter to congress imploring them to defund the war. It's killing us.
