Bill, I agree with you. I remember reading in a number of books that on that Friday morning after hearing the president was coming to the theater that night James ford wanted to decorate the state box with the biggest American flag he could find. He thought that the treasury department had such a flag. Why would he have to go looking if he already had flags? Best Gary
