Hey Heather, hope you got the book I sent, will be writing soon. Rich
Thor Heyerdahl (October 6, 1914, Larvik, Norway – April 18, 2002, Colla Micheri, Italy) was a Norwegian ethnographer and adventurer with a background in zoology and geography. He became notable for his Kon-Tiki expedition, in which he sailed 8,000 km (5,000 mi) across the Pacific Ocean in a self-built raft from South America to the Tuamotu Islands in 1947. The expedition was designed to demonstrate that ancient people could have made long sea voyages, creating contacts between apparently separate cultures.
There's another blog I follow and I wanted to send the blogger this post because one of his posts reminded me of yours. Would I be able to copy this and send it to him?
I just read your appealing article and I appreciate your calmness when writing this and not letting go your indignation and feelings of revolt you surely must have. I agree fully that inmates should be treated in a human way! I would say keep courage and don't give up the fight for more rights for prisoners. A lot of people think the same way, even if not everybody. I also agree things should be better, not only 'in there' but also 'out there'!
Thanks for writing! I finished the transcription for your post. I am new to transcription, so I was very interested to learn about the reality of life in prison.

Thanks for sharing this appealing story with us. I'll pray for you as well as for everybody implicated in it.
Take care,

I was particularly struck by the line "You are the only one who can speak for yourself."
I hope I've helped make your voice a little louder.
