    Wow...really? I was in high school and was very affected by that news story. So sad...

    Jim Jones, the cult leader, was an example of a person who used a false front of Christianity (I think) to lure his victims together and later to relocate to South America where he insisted that they either cooperate in a mass suicide or be murdered.

    As with any large event, we all remember where we were when we heard the news. I was in military boot camp & heard rumors (we weren't allowed to have news papers).
