Let's find a prisoner and correspond with him here. Of course, he (she) will have to snailmail us and we'll have to reprint the responses. Any volunteers for this project?

Ira's not in prison. He's only confined to a quaint little French village and lives with his girlfriend, Anika Flodin. He's on the Internet somewhere.

I get mail from prisoners off and on, all the time... and, yes, it does take a little getting used to...

I began visiting and writing about prisoners a few summers ago when my friend and colleague, John Hines, invited me to go with him to meet Phil Berrigan who was awaiting sentencing in the Cumberland County Jail (Portland ME) for his role in the Ash Wednesday Peace Action against the USS The Sullivans at the Bath Iron Works. You can read the chronicles of my relationship with the Prince of Peace Plowshares on my web site at http://www.musenet.org/plowshares.
