[Lee Heggy]

After 140 years there are still wounds that haven't healed and those that wave the bloody shirt are still with us. That we should never forget is good but it's more important that what we remember is true. Good and bad on all sides but men such as Robert E. Lee should be thought of in proper context of their times and by true measure of their spirit. He was one of the most vibrant men of the 19th century and for his memory and honor to be stained or tainted by ignorant remarks is not proper and something that falls beneath contempt.

Thanks for the reminder Valin.

Amen, May God bless the memory of Gen. Robert E. Lee.
