World Wide Rave at the site of the Shot Heard Round the World

On a frigid January afternoon, my friend Jonathan Kranz and I went to the Lexington, MA town green to talk about a World Wide Rave from 234 years ago.

On this spot, the American Revolution was triggered. Townspeople were alerted to the coming British Regulars as Paul Revere rode from Boston through several towns including Lexington and Concord. The first shot was fired here, and a pre-Web World Wide Rave was triggered.

Thank you Jonathan for shooting and editing this short film. For better quality, watch on YouTube in HD.

David, this is the perfect World Wide Rave. We -- literally people worldwide -- are fortunate that it happened. The Founding Fathers put their own lives on the line to make this "rave" a reality. -Michael
