I find it amazing that you remembered that. Of course, I did too, after I skimmed through the discussion.
Oh my. I really don't have the stomach or time (honestly, that's not an excuse. The paucity of my posts lately in part reflects the pressing time issue) to research the question and to make intelligent, informed statements.
All that I will say here is that I hope that we do not get to the point that people attempt to erase, or have erased, reminders of the War, in the public setting. The Civil War happened, it is a fact of history, regardless of whether or not one side was in the wrong. I have seen some isolated incidences of where I definitely believe that that has happened. I hope that it does not portend a trend.
Feel free to respond. If we pick up with the discussion later, we will need to do it in another forum.
