Daly > New York Blood Center > New York, N.Y. > seismo!cmcl2!nybcb!daly E Pluribus Unum is Latin for "One out of many." It is the motto of our grand and glorious Republic and embraces the idea that our individuality can work together to form a perfect whole; one nation out of many states, one nation out of many cultures, one nation out of many people. I could go on, but the next time you see this on a coin or a dollar bill, remember that there is someone here in San Diego who is also working that both of us might enjoy the liberties we have.
