♪♫♪ Happy Birthday. ♪♫♪
So sang Stevie Wonder about Martin Luther King Jr, who would have been 78 years old today if he hadn't been shot and killed on the balcony of the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee on the 4th of April 1968.
When I woke up this morning and switched on my computer I was greeted with an offline message from a friend of mine informing me of this so I decided that I should do something to remember Martin Luther King Jr. I trawled through my CD collection and found the disk that contains Dr King's famous "I have a dream" speech and popped it into my CD player.
