Today is the 150th anniversary of Lee's surrender...worth a mention, I'd think.

Old times there are not forgotten...

You are right. Old times are not forgotten. 150 years is really not that long. My mother’s great uncle who she knew as a child fought in the Civil War. We have a picture of her standing next to him.

There is at least one Civil War widow still drawing a pension and a couple of children of Civil War veterans. I believe there is one child of a veteran who said his father told him he either met Lincoln or was at the Gettysburg address.
