Pete...
Thanks for sharing this story with us. It's nice to know there are still polite teens in our society and that they so impressed SC Justice Thomas that he was willing to take time out from his busy schedule to address that school. Awesome!! My applause goes to those two young men!

I read Justice Thomas' book autobiography and thought it was a great read.

An amazing story.
