Michale [4] -

That's the exact same thought that occurred to me, I have to admit...

As for the rest of it, I repeat:

It had been a bloody affair, one whose scars still linger today.

It's been 150 years, and our country still has yet to put the conflict entirely to rest...

He don't give a damn
Brother Billy has both guns drawn
He ain't been right since Vietnam

Daddy's doing Sister Sally
Grandma's dying of cancer now
The cattle all have brucellosis
We'll get through somehow

Sweet home Alabama
Play that dead band's song
Turn those speakers up full blast
Play it all night long

-Warren Zevon

The magnanimity of the victors and the honor that was shown to those who were vanquished.. These men were trying to kill each other in the days before, yet they could step back from the battle and show respect due any fellow human being... Kinda puts things in perspective doesn't it??? Would that there could be such respect shown in the here and now, eh?? Michale Through the reading of your commentary CW, I was struck by one thing..
