RE: Lest we forget
I saw this on the AP's website this morning on their "This Day in History" story. Didn't dawn on me until then.

I want the respect of intelligent men, but I will choose for myself the intelligent. --Carl Sandburg

RE: Lest we forget
I always think about the horror that Mary Lincoln experienced that night. From watching her husband shot, the blood, the extremely stressful night at the Petersen house and finally walking out in the morning after Lincoln had passed and looking at Ford's Theater and screaming, "That dreadful house! That dreadful house!"
