        Remember Chattanooga!
        I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

          I'd rather forget it, thank you very much.

            At the DC Poly meet, I was trying to remember the name of the battlefield in Virginia that I visited a couple of years ago. It just resurfaced. Petersburg. Man, that's out in the Virginian boondocks.

              Obviously you've never made the trip to lovely Vicksburg, MS.

              Edit: Didn't see the word "Virginian." Still, Vicksburg is a crappy little town.

                      It did quite well considering the industrial and population advantage of the north. The idea of a free South still exists today. A new organization entitled "The League of the South" has begun to gain some small support. It is a modern day advocate for Southern Independence.

                        On the other hand, any one who seriously thinks there's a reason for secession now is a nutcase.

                          I would like to contribute information to this topic, but seeing as how some others (no names) tend to emtionalize the topic, I'm not sure if I should go ahead . . . .

                            I'm not so sure mrmitchell. Let me say that secession would be a BAD idea that I would NOT support, but there are many differences between the north and the South. They seem to be growing more along political lines than they have in years.

                              Or cut it down to 48 just to keep the stars even. Here's the deal: You can have West Virginia back, but only if we kick Texas out.

                                West Virginia!?! We will take Texas, but you can have West Virginia!
