Hi haqi, and All....Just am back from a wonderful trip to Williamsburg, Jamestown and Yorktown...So many wonderful images, and so many wonderful people in the present....

Will tell you all that our wonderful tour guide, who has been there for many years, said something that I had to write down so I could share it with you.

At the grounds of Yorktown, where the Americans won the decisive battle and we won our freedom....and George Washington decreed that nothing was to be changed or taken away from that battlefield where American Democracy began...

Jerry Hedgepeth said:

"Nothing you own,
Nothing you will ever own,
Will ever be worth what these guys out there on the field
Won for you! "

So very true.....
And BTW, for whatever it's worth, I do agree with your statement....
