RE: Just Trivia
Congratulations Roger, for a slow day you got that pretty fast.

As the creator, host and moderator for the Lincoln Discussion Symposium, as your prize you may select any item in the Lincoln Discussion Symposium Gift Catalog and just charge it on the Symposium credit card.

And now for "A little piece of "fake trivia".... well maybe.
Go West, young man" is a phrase, the origin of which is often credited to the American author and newspaper editor Horace Greeley concerning America's expansion westward, related to the then-popular concept of Manifest Destiny. No one has yet proven who first used this phrase in print. (from Wikippedia)

Mary Lincoln, who was not a big fan of Horace, was worried that her boys would follow Mr. Greeley's advice. When her husband was offered the governorship in 1849 of the Oregon Territory she flatly insisted that Mr. Lincoln turn it down. She was worried her boys would grow up to be cowboys.
This is alleged to be her favorite song - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RePtDvh4Yq4

So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?
