I was looking at half  dozen newspapers, looking for a coverage on this.  Hardly a mention.  Will we forget after the last WWII vet passes?

Well, probably not that soon, but eventually.

After all, I didn't hear anybody doing much 'remembering' on August 24th.

Really strange, I don't think it was mentioned in the newspaper here on the Big Island.
Seems like we forget these things way too quickly.

^ [thumbsup]  (I'm not sure a 'smiley' is the right thing. Lets' just pretend it's a straight-faced, "stoic" thumbs-up.)



(As to my earlier remarks: Just so nobody gets the wrong idea, I'm not trying to be an asshole. I'm just arguing that it's only natural that the longer ago something is, the less it will be thought of.)
