John Moses....Please, I mean no disrespect, and I didn't imply you were ranting...if I did, I didn't mean it to come off that way. Like I said, I don't understand some of the sntiment from my perspective. Although if I had been raised in the South and my family was there for generations and had been on the losing end of an invading army from within, I too would probably be a little sore. It isn't right to pillage and burn cities and farms, even under war time doctrines. But again, I have no direct connection, so i guess that is why I asked about the strong lasting sentiment. thanks again. JC
