Just before the bombing began, Thomas Ingmire asked friends in an email to send him calligraphy with their thoughts about the Iraq war.

His email was forwarded. And forwarded. And forwarded.

The result: He received more than 400 pieces of calligraphy from all over the world. Some are beautiful, some scary and many are very touching.

Check out the site and if you are in the SF bay area, come to the exhibition in the main library.
