How 'bout all the p.o.'ed Southern sympathizers re-channel their anger and energy and do something thats constructive. i.e., become active in a Battlefield preservation group? Who needs a subdivision next to Chickamauga or Chancellorsville? Or a copy-cat strip mall at Brice's Crossroads when there is another one 2 miles down the road?

That way, you'll have someplace to go and show your prodigy your heritage. And then, in the future, THEY can post to F.R. about the evil ways of the Blue-bellies and A. Lincoln.

Who needs a subdivision next to Chickamauga or Chancellorsville?

Yeah, I took the Chickamauga car tour a few years ago (I grew up about five miles from the park, but had never taken the tour) and at the very first stop, the park ranger told us that Bedford Forrest marshalled his troops, "right over there". Right over there being a K-mart parking lot now.
