I have recounted your speech to numerous friends and actually feel that I was inside that cockpit with you as you conducted your mission.

John Peters was superb – wasn’t expecting things so powerful. Not sure how to top him next time. Many thanks.
To be in a room containing over 200 people with total silence was awesome and I can’t remember that ever happening before. I don’t know if you were aware of the silence but there wasn’t a single cough, any sound of people whispering or shuffling, just stillness. I think that some people had even forgotten to breathe!
I’m sure you get many hundreds of e-mails like this but I feel compelled to write to you and say thanks. Thanks for putting the trivial things in life back into proper perspective. It’s all too easy to let relatively minor things in life grow out of proportion. Hearing your story last Wednesday night was really amazing and helped to ‘re-
align’ things which I had, quite frankly, been overly worrying about. On top of that, what a fantastic delivery. I can’t remember the last time I have heard someone speak so captivatingly for well over an hour. A true inspiration.
