As we gather today. let us think of the Mykola Rudenkos and of the Oles Berdnyks who sit in dark cells. isolated. not even allowed to see their loved ones. The lifeblood of a country is forced to rot in KGB havens for the humane. One can only wonder at the kind of achievements these people would have given to the worldyes. even to us. One wonders what great research of substance Dr. Nina Strokata would have accomplished had her life not been uprooted and she been forced to emigrate. One wonders what great things Vyacheslav Chornovil. the journalist. would have done had he not been cast into prison for his belief in human rights. I am proud to say that I have adopted this particular prisoner of conscience.
