When they say "Extended News," I don't think they mean extended four years in the past.

I'll certainly not throw stones, as I posted an *extended news* item on 06 March regarding the anniversary of the fall of the Alamo to the forces of Mexican General Santa Anna's army 166 years ago. Several dozen FReepers responded, and there was only one carping about the admittedly late dispatch and my description thereof.
There is a related bit of recent news to that Alamo story though, since the names of several additional volunteers who perished in that fight have now been added to those of the 185 previously known defenders, bringing the list of those known to have fought there at over two hundred. Hopefully, there's a similar more recent bit of news to be added to this four-year-old story as well, and if the reposting of such an older item reawakens interest and brings us updated information, then that's works to the betterment of informed FReepers.
