A friend of mine sent out an e-mail about attending a recent HumanLight celebration in the Philadelphia area. It was hosted by another friend who had been a member of my local Humanist group here in Ohio.

My friend Martha Knox was interviewed for Tuesday the 23rd on Morning Edition on NPR about the celebration.
