In Memorium, During the week I was involed in a political discussion,with some friend fronm around the world (as one does).When i happened to mention the fact that I was proud to livein a country that had told the USA to take thier nukes and shove them where the sun does not shine.Interestingly enough this young pakistani boy said to me "David Lange he was a good man" and he proceeded to tell me about DL's involvement in said event.I was so amazed to have this young boy tell me what happeed andi am still wondering where he learnt about it.At the time I was astounded and forgot to ask.THat someone who was just a baby when it happend and who hadlived all his lifein pakistan new about this important piece of New Zealand history.
