Just wanted to draw something to say farewell to Charlton Heston. I've seen Ben Hur so many times, and Omega Man has always been one of my favorites too. The thing I would like to have told him is that I thank him for his contribution, and being moved to participate in the Civil Rights movement, and March on Washington with his peers Sammy Davis Jr., and Marlon Brando. All are gone, but not forgotten by me.
