That's ok ... no harm done ... I was just confused.  I grew up whistling Dixie and know my Confederate history backwards forwards and sideways (used to have all sorts of arguments with my teachers in the lower grades because they do an awful job of teaching the Civil War ... really awful ... borderline pathetic.  They sidestep all the Constitutional issues, barely discuss the representational and economic issues, and make it sound like the war was all about the peripheral issues - just because those were the ones that got the public's interest.)

Eeeeech ... don't get me started, I'll be ranting about the US school systems until the cows come home, grow old, puke up blood and die.

Could be worse, could be raining.
