No, I have not forgotten, but at some point we must let this recede into the past. If we don't we become just like the British, who moan and cry every time the sacred Di's anniversary pops up. The further we obsess the more we're prone to
idiot conspiracy theories too. I would doubt there was much commemoration on Pearl Harbor Day in 1947, and though the awful deed of 9/11 killed several thousands, Pearl Harbor commenced a war that killed nearly half-a-million of our soldiers. Let us remember, then, but let us not get psychiatric about it.
P. S. at 5:51 p.m. Somebody named Pollowitz all but
confirms my suspicion, and apparently is still in a heavy daze that people didn't obsess over Pearl Harbor in 1947, or that Harry Truman didn't burst into tears upon the remembrance -- as Dubya might.
