George,

1. You are right. It is an open disscusion board. Though since I've been on the board, I've seen absolutley nothing in any of your post that put forth any information on the Civil War.

2. I'm glad you won't ignore me. It would be oh so lonely.

3. You do have that urge to speak for everyone else, so I suspect you won't freeze me out.

4. Now, George please don't whine.

Adieu sweet Prince, parting is such sweet sorrow.

PS. Oh Yes George concerning NBF. You might want to purchase the book ...River Run Red...The Fort Pillow Massacre... by Andrew Ward...it seems fairly balanced to me, though I haven't read it all yet.

Chase.
