The amazing uneducated/self-educated Abraham Lincoln!

I'm going to be away for a few days, so in case I've touched off a firestorm, I won't be around till Sunday evening to reengage. If I haven't touched off a firestorm, though, I won't be disappointed.

Have a nice time away, and it's OK Liz, we can wait till you get back

It's not just the act of assassination that is fascinating. It's the history, the location , the magnitude of the event, the culmination of events, but mostly, it's learning about the the people. (Did I get enough commas in there Laurie)
